[HTML][HTML] The phenomenon of task-irrelevant perceptual learning

AR Seitz, T Watanabe - Vision research, 2009 - Elsevier
Task-irrelevant perceptual learning (TIPL) has captured a growing interest in the field of
perceptual learning. The basic phenomenon is that stimulus features that are irrelevant to a …

Task-irrelevant learning occurs only when the irrelevant feature is weak

Y Tsushima, AR Seitz, T Watanabe - Current biology, 2008 - cell.com
The role of attention in perceptual learning has been controversial. Numerous studies have
reported that learning does not occur on stimulus features that are irrelevant to a subject's …

Exogenous attention enables perceptual learning

SFA Szpiro, M Carrasco - Psychological science, 2015 - journals.sagepub.com
Practice can improve visual perception, and these improvements are considered to be a
