The influence of schizotypal traits on attention under high perceptual load [PDF]
Schizophrenia Research: Cognition, 2018 Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders (SSD) are known to be characterised by abnormalities in attentional processes, but there are inconsistencies in the literature that remain unresolved.

Event‐related potential patterns of selective attention modulated by perceptual load [PDF]
Brain and Behavior, 2023 Introduction A high perceptual load can effectively prevent attention from being drawn to irrelevant stimuli; however, the neural pattern underlying this process remains unclear.

Visual Perceptual Load Attenuates Age-Related Audiovisual Integration in an Audiovisual Discrimination Task [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 Previous studies confirmed that the cognitive resources are limited for each person, and perceptual load affects the detection of stimulus greatly; however, how the visual perceptual load influences audiovisual integration (AVI) is still unclear.

Reward history modulates perceptual load effects
Acta Psychologica, 2021 The reward history of a stimulus can yield strong attentional selection biases. Indeed, attentional capture can be triggered by previously rewarded items which are neither salient nor relevant for the ongoing task, even when selection is clearly counter ...

Establishing gaze markers of perceptual load during multi-target visual search [PDF]
Cognitive Research, 2023 Highly-automated technologies are increasingly incorporated into existing systems, for instance in advanced car models. Although highly automated modes permit non-driving activities (e.g.

Visual perceptual load and processing of somatosensory stimuli in primary and secondary somatosensory cortices [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Load theory assumes that neural activation to distractors in early sensory cortices is modulated by the perceptual load of a main task, regardless of whether task and distractor share the same sensory modality or not.

Visual Search in 3D: Effects of Monoscopic and Stereoscopic Cues to Depth on the Validity of Feature Integration Theory and Perceptual Load Theory [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 Previous research has successfully used feature integration theory to operationalise the predictions of Perceptual Load Theory, while simultaneously testing the predictions of both models.

High perceptual load makes everybody equal: eliminating individual differences in distractibility with load [PDF]
Psychological Science, 2007 Perceptual load has been found to be a powerful determinant of distractibility in laboratory tasks. The present study assessed how the effects of perceptual load on distractibility in the laboratory relate to individual differences in the likelihood of ...

Perceptual biases and positive schizotypy: The role of perceptual load [PDF]
Personality and Individual Differences, 2006 The study investigated the effects of perceptual load on the bias to report seeing non-existing events—a bias associated with positive symptoms of schizophrenia and positive schizotypal symptoms.

Irrelevant positive emotional information facilitates response inhibition only under a high perceptual load [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 Response inhibition involves suppressing those responses that are no longer needed. Previous research has separately studied the role of attentional resources and emotional information in response inhibition.
