Early and late selection: Visual letter confusions in a bar-probe task

Acta Psychologica, 1987
Abstract This study is concerned with the early vs late selection issue in visual information processing. Early selection theories assert that selective attention operates in a stage containing rapidly decaying precategorical visual information. Late selection theories argue that selective attention operates in a stage containing abstract categorical

Convergent and Distinct Effects of Multisensory Combination on Statistical Learning Using a Computer Glove

Frontiers in Psychology, 2021
Learning to play a musical instrument involves mapping visual + auditory cues to motor movements and anticipating transitions. Inspired by the serial reaction time task and artificial grammar learning, we investigated explicit and implicit knowledge of ...

Pupil Dilation Reflects Task Relevance Prior to Search

Journal of Cognition, 2018
When observers search for a specific target, it is assumed that they activate a representation of the task relevant object in visual working memory (VWM).

Prioritized Selection in Visual Search Through Onset Capture and Color Inhibition: Evidence From a Probe-Dot Detection Task. [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2005
Observers performed a preview search task in which, on some trials, they had to indicate the presence of a briefly presented probe-dot. Probes could be presented on locations corresponding to old or new elements and prior to or after the presentation of the new elements.

Chewing Stimulation Reduces Appetite Ratings and Attentional Bias toward Visual Food Stimuli in Healthy-Weight Individuals

Frontiers in Psychology, 2018
Based on the theory of incentive sensitization, the exposure to food stimuli sensitizes the brain’s reward circuits and enhances attentional bias toward food.

Selective effects of 5-HT2C receptor modulation on performance of a novel valence-probe visual discrimination task and probabilistic reversal learning in mice [PDF]

Psychopharmacology, 2018
RATIONALE: Dysregulation of the serotonin (5-HT) system is a pathophysiological component in major depressive disorder (MDD), a condition closely associated with abnormal emotional responsivity to positive and negative feedback. However, the precise mechanism through which 5-HT tone biases feedback responsivity remains unclear.

The effect of attention on body size adaptation and body dissatisfaction

Royal Society Open Science, 2022
Attentional bias to low-fat bodies is thought to be associated with body dissatisfaction—a symptom and risk factor of eating disorders. However, the causal nature of this relationship is unclear.

A Visual Dot-Probe Task as a Measurement of Attentional Bias and its Relationship with the Symptoms of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder among Women with Breast Cancer [PDF]

Advances in Cancer: Research & Treatment, 2013
Self-reported measurements of attentional bias are possibly influenced by social desirability, conscious awareness, or introspection. This study developed a visual dot-probe task to study the relationship between attentional bias and posttraumatic stress disorder among women with breast cancer.

Both hand position and movement direction modulate visual attention

Frontiers in Psychology, 2013
The current study explored effects of continuous hand motion on the allocation of visual attention. A concurrent paradigm was used to combine visually concealed continuous hand movements with an attentionally demanding letter discrimination task.
