Selective target processing: Perceptual load or distractor salience? [PDF]
Perception & Psychophysics, 2005 Perceptual load theory (Lavie, 1995) states that participants cannot engage in focused attention when shown displays containing a low perceptual load, because attentional resources are not exhausted, whereas in high-load displays attention is always focused, because attentional resources are exhausted.

Frontiers in Psychology, 2013 Previous research has investigated whether visual salience (i.e., how much an item stands out) or perceptual load (i.e., display complexity) is the dominant factor in visual selective attention.

Inattentional Deafness: Visual Load Leads to Time-Specific Suppression of Auditory Evoked Responses [PDF]
, 2015 UNLABELLED: Due to capacity limits on perception, conditions of high perceptual load lead to reduced processing of unattended stimuli (Lavie et al., 2014).

Impact of vocal load on breathiness: Perceptual evaluation [PDF]
Logopedics Phoniatrics Vocology, 2014 To evaluate the impact on voice of 2 hours of continuous oral reading.Fifty normophonic women underwent two sessions of voice loading in which the required intensity level varied: 60-65 dB(A) for the first session, and 70-75 dB(A) for the second session.

The role of perceptual load in object recognition. [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2009 Predictions from perceptual load theory (Lavie, 1995, 2005) regarding object recognition across the same or different viewpoints were tested. Results showed that high perceptual load reduces distracter recognition levels despite always presenting distracter objects from the same view.

Conceptual and Methodological Concerns in the Theory of Perceptual Load
Frontiers in Psychology, 2013 The present paper provides a short critical review of the theory of perceptual load. It closely examines the basic tenets and assumptions of the theory and identifies major conceptual and methodological problems that have been largely ignored in the ...

Cross-modal extinction in a boy with severely autistic behaviour and high verbal intelligence [PDF]
, 2008 Anecdotal reports from individuals with autism suggest a loss of awareness to stimuli from one modality in the presence of stimuli from another. Here we document such a case in a detailed study of T.M., a 13-year-old boy with autism in whom significant ...

The Competitive Influences of Perceptual Load and Working Memory Guidance on Selective Attention.
PLoS ONE, 2015 The perceptual load theory in selective attention literature proposes that the interference from task-irrelevant distractor is eliminated when perceptual capacity is fully consumed by task-relevant information.

Top-down effects on early visual processing in humans: a predictive coding framework [PDF]
, 2011 An increasing number of human electroencephalography (EEG) studies examining the earliest component of the visual evoked potential, the so-called C1, have cast doubts on the previously prevalent notion that this component is impermeable to top-down ...
