Examining the effects of passive and active strategies on behavior during hybrid visual memory search: evidence from eye tracking

open access: yesCognitive Research, 2019
Hybrid search requires observers to search both through a visual display and through the contents of memory in order to find designated target items. Because professional hybrid searchers such as airport baggage screeners are required to look for many ...

The effect of categorical superiority in subsequent search misses

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2021
Subsequent search misses (SSM) refer to the decrease in accuracy of second target detection in dual-target visual search. One of the theoretical explanations of SSM errors is similarity bias – the tendency to search for similar targets and to miss the ...

Situating visual search [PDF]

open access: yesVision Research, 2011
Visual search attracted great interest because its ease under certain circumstances seemed to provide a way to understand how properties of early visual cortical areas could explain complex perception without resorting to higher order psychological or neurophysiological mechanisms. Furthermore, there was the hope that properties of visual search itself

Race Guides Attention in Visual Search. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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.

Visual search elicits the electrophysiological marker of visual working memory. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND:Although limited in capacity, visual working memory (VWM) plays an important role in many aspects of visually-guided behavior. Recent experiments have demonstrated an electrophysiological marker of VWM encoding and maintenance, the ...

Testing the Attentional Dwelling Hypothesis of Attentional Capture

open access: yesJournal of Cognition, 2018
Researchers are strongly divided as to whether abrupt onsets capture spatial attention in a purely stimulus-driven fashion or contingent on their search goals.

Everything is Foreseen, Yet Free will is Given (Mishna Avot 3:15)

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Is countershading camouflage robust to lighting change due to weather? [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal 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 ...

The roles of symbolic and numerical representations in asymmetric visual search

open access: yesActa 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 ...
