Although object categorization is a fundamental cognitive ability, it is also a complex process
going beyond the perception and organization of sensory stimulation. Here we review …

In vision science, a particularly controversial topic is whether and how quickly the semantic
information about objects is available outside foveal vision. Here, we aimed at contributing …

Age-related differences in visual search have been extensively studied using simple item
arrays, showing an attentional decline. Little is known about how aging affects attentional …

The complex interplay between low-and high-level mechanisms governing our visual
system can only be fully understood within ecologically valid naturalistic contexts. For this …

Binding, a critical cognitive process likely mediated by attention, is essential for creating
coherent object representations within a scene. This process is vulnerable in individuals …

While humans typically saccade every∼ 250 ms in natural settings, studies on vision tend to
prevent or restrict eye movements. As it takes∼ 50 ms to initiate and execute a saccade, this …

How does viewers' knowledge guide their attention while they watch everyday events, how
does it affect their memory, and does it change with age? Older adults have diminished …

Older adults struggle with tasks requiring selective attention amidst distractions.
Experimental observations about age-related decline have relied on visual search designs …

Eye-tracking studies using arrays of objects have demonstrated that some high-level
processing of object semantics can occur in extra-foveal vision, but its role on the allocation …

In recent years, cross-cultural research on the modulation of basic cognitive processes by
culture has intensified–also from an aging perspective. Despite this increased research …
