Perceptual load modulates the delta oscillation and the contribution of delta oscillation to reward positivity during feedback valence encoding [PDF]
Frontiers in PsychologyRewP (reward positivity) and P300 are feedback-related ERP components, while delta and theta are oscillatory responses evoked during feedback processing. While the perceptual difficulty of feedback modulates ERP components, its impact on feedback-related

Assessing Perceptual Load and Cognitive Load by Fixation-Related Information of Eye Movements [PDF]
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 Affects Eyewitness Accuracy & Susceptibility to Leading Questions [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2016 Load Theory (Lavie, 1995; 2005) states that the level of perceptual load in a task (i.e. the amount of information involved in processing task-relevant stimuli) determines the efficiency of selective attention.

The Effect and Time Course of Prediction and Perceptual Load on Category-Based Attentional Orienting Across Color and Shape Dimensions [PDF]
Brain SciencesObjectives: This study investigated the temporal dynamics of category-based attentional orienting (CAO) under the influences of prediction (top-down) and perceptual load (bottom-up) across color and shape dimensions, combining behavioral and event ...

High Perceptual Load Makes Monocular Attention Different [PDF]
Nature Precedings, 2010 Attention is a fundamental function of the human which is important in our daily life. Perceptual load is thought to play an important role in selective attention^1,2^.

Is Hand Selection Modulated by Cognitive-perceptual Load? [PDF]
Neuroscience, 2018 Previous studies proposed that selecting which hand to use for a reaching task appears to be modulated by a factor described as "task difficulty". However, what features of a task might contribute to greater or lesser "difficulty" in the context of hand selection decisions has yet to be determined.

Perceptual Load and Sex-Specific Personality Traits. [PDF]
Exp Psychol, 2021 The impact of sex-specific personality traits has often been investigated for visuospatial tasks such as mental rotation, but less is known about the influence of personality traits on visual search. We investigated whether the Big Five personality traits Extroversion (E), Openness (O), Agreeableness (A), Conscientiousness (C), and Neuroticism (N) and ...

Perceptual load does not modulate auditory distractor processing [PDF]
Cognition, 2013 In vision, it is well established that the perceptual load of a relevant task determines the extent to which irrelevant distractors are processed. Much less research has addressed the effects of perceptual load within hearing. Here, we provide an extensive test using two different perceptual load manipulations, measuring distractor processing through ...

Dynamic modulation of the perceptual load on microsaccades during a selective spatial attention task [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 Selective spatial attention enhances task performance at restricted regions within the visual field. The magnitude of this effect depends on the level of attentional load, which determines the efficiency of distractor rejection. Mechanisms of attentional
