Everything is Foreseen, Yet Free will is Given (Mishna Avot 3:15)
Journal of Cognition, 2018 Jan Theeuwes’ review of visual selection shines a useful spotlight on the role of selection history in determining subsequent deployments of attention. However, he blurs an important distinction between volition and top-down guidance of attention and he ...

Race Guides Attention in Visual Search. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 It is known that faces are rapidly and even unconsciously categorized into social groups (black vs. white, male vs. female). Here, I test whether preferences for specific social groups guide attention, using a visual search paradigm.

The roles of symbolic and numerical representations in asymmetric visual search
Acta Psychologica, 2021 This study aims to explore the impact of symbolic and numerical representations in asymmetric visual search. Heterogeneous and homogeneous mathematical units, letters, symbols and numbers were used in the first and second experiments, respectively ...

Is countershading camouflage robust to lighting change due to weather? [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 Countershading is a pattern of coloration thought to have evolved in order to implement camouflage. By adopting a pattern of coloration that makes the surface facing towards the sun darker and the surface facing away from the sun lighter, the overall ...

IEEE Transactions on Haptics, 2010 In this study, we investigate the influence of visual feedback on haptic exploration. A haptic search task was designed in which subjects had to haptically explore a virtual display using a force-feedback device and to determine whether a target was present among distractor items. Although the target was recognizable only haptically, visual feedback of

Visual search and decision making in bees: time, speed and accuracy [PDF]
, 2006 An insect searching a meadow for flowers may detect several flowers from different species per second, so the task of choosing the right flowers rapidly is not trivial.

Effects of age and eccentricity on visual target detection
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2014 The aim of this study was to examine the effects of aging and target eccentricity on a visual search task comprising 30 images of everyday life projected into a hemisphere, realizing a ± 90° visual field.

Cortical Dynamics of Contextually-Cued Attentive Visual Learning and Search: Spatial and Object Evidence Accumulation [PDF]
, 2009 How do humans use predictive contextual information to facilitate visual search? How are consistently paired scenic objects and positions learned and used to more efficiently guide search in familiar scenes?

Visual search, visual streams, and visual architectures [PDF]
Perception & Psychophysics, 1991 Most psychological, physiological, and computational models of early vision suggest that retinal information is divided into a parallel set of feature modules. The dominant theories of visual search assume that these modules form a "blackboard" architecture: a set of independent representations that communicate only through a central processor.

Frontiers in Psychology, 2016 Faces spontaneously capture attention. However, which special attributes of a face underlie this effect are unclear. To address this question, we investigate how gist information, specific visual properties and differing amounts of experience with faces ...
