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 ...

Competition explains limited attention and perceptual resources: implications for perceptual load and dilution theories [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2013 Both perceptual load theory and dilution theory purport to explain when and why task-irrelevant information, or so-called distractors are processed. Central to both explanations is the notion of limited resources, although the theories differ in the ...

Assessing Perceptual Load and Cognitive Load by Fixation-Related Information of Eye Movements
Sensors, 2022 Assessing mental workload is imperative for avoiding unintended negative consequences in critical situations such as driving and piloting. To evaluate mental workload, measures of eye movements have been adopted, but unequivocal results remain elusive ...

Perceptual load-dependent neural correlates of distractor interference inhibition.
PLoS ONE, 2011 BackgroundThe load theory of selective attention hypothesizes that distractor interference is suppressed after perceptual processing (i.e., in the later stage of central processing) at low perceptual load of the central task, but in the early stage of ...

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.

Event‐related potential patterns of selective attention modulated by perceptual load
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.

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.

NeuroImage, 2023 Load Theory states that perceptual load prevents, or at least reduces, the processing of task-unrelated stimuli. This study systematically examined the detection and neural processing of auditory stimuli unrelated to a visual foreground task.

Degraded stimulus visibility and the effects of perceptual load on distractor interference
Frontiers in Psychology, 2013 In this study we examined whether effects of perceptual load on the attentional selectivity are modulated by degradation of the visual input. According to the perceptual load theory, increasing task difficulty via degradation of stimulus visibility ...

Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 Our research aimed to investigate the effectiveness of auditory, visual, and audiovisual warning signals for capturing the attention of the pilot, and how stimulus onset asynchronies (SOA) in audiovisual stimuli affect pilots perceiving the bimodal ...
