What pops out in positional priming of pop-out: insights from event-related EEG lateralizations [PDF]
, 2014 It is well established that, in visual pop-out search, reaction time (RT) performance is influenced by cross-trial repetitions versus changes of target-defining attributes.

Interference effect in total and across number of distractor words.
, 2020 Total interference was significant at ~10ms. For 3 and 5 distractor words, interference was significant at ~15ms. There was no interference effect for 4 distractor words. Boxplots show mean, median, upper and lower quartiles and range.

Learning to suppress likely distractor locations in visual search is driven by the local distractor frequency [PDF]
, 2022 Salient but task-irrelevant distractors interfere less with visual search when they appear in a display region where distractors have appeared more frequently in the past (‘distractor-location probability cueing’).

P2-10: Salient Local Targets Receive Higher Interference from Collinear Global Distractors
i-Perception, 2012 Salient items usually attract our attention in visual search. A target overlapping with a salient distractor should thus have benefit over that which was non-overlapping.

Attentional Capture From Inside vs. Outside the Attentional Focus
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 In this study, we jointly reported in an empirical and a theoretical way, for the first time, two main theories: Lavie’s perceptual load theory and Gaspelin et al.’s attentional dwelling hypothesis. These theories explain in different ways the modulation

Frontiers in Psychology, 2014 Targets in a visual search task are detected faster if they appear in a probable target region as compared to a less probable target region, an effect which has been termed probability cueing.

A novel multi-word paradigm for investigating semantic context effects in language production.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Semantic context modulates precision and speed of language production. Using different experimental designs including the Picture-Word-Interference (PWI) paradigm, it has consistently been shown that categorically related distractor words (e.g., cat ...

Perceptual load and enumeration: Distractor interference depends on subitizing capacity.
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2021 Attention is limited, both in processing capacity (leading to phenomena of "inattentional blindness") and in the capacity for selective focus (leading to distraction). Load theory (e.g., Lavie, 1995) accounts for both limitations by proposing that perceptual processing has limited capacity but proceeds automatically and in parallel on all stimuli ...

Differential contributions of set-shifting and monitoring to dual-task interference [PDF]
, 2012 It is commonly argued that complex behaviour is regulated by a number of “executive functions” which work to co-ordinate the operation of disparate cognitive systems in the service of an overall goal.
