Our search performance is strongly influenced by our past experience. In the lab, this
influence has been demonstrated by investigating a variety of phenomena, including …

Human vision is heterogeneous around the visual field. At a fixed eccentricity, performance
is better along the horizontal than the vertical meridian and along the lower than the upper …

Attention mechanisms that guide visuomotor behaviors are classified into three broad types
according to their reliance on stimulus salience, current goals, and selection histories (ie …

Attention helps in selection among competing stimuli, but attentional selection also biases
subsequent information processing as a prior experience. Previous studies have …

At some point, spatial priming effects more faithfully reflect response selection processes
than they do attentional orienting or sensory processes. Findings from the spatial cueing …

Background Attentional bias modification training (ABMT) is commonly employed to regulate
negative attentional bias (NAB) and, in turn, to prevent or alleviate depressive symptoms …

Searching for a unique target is faster when its unique feature repeats than when it changes.
The standard account for this priming-of-popout (PoP) phenomenon is that selecting a target …

It is well known that priming, probably by the contents of working memory, can influence
subsequent visual task performance. How ubiquitous is this effect? Can incidental exposure …

The current study proposes that top-down attentional prioritization of salient items may
produce the so-called stimulus-driven capture. To test this proposal, the “expectation-based …

During visual search, both top-down factors and bottom-up properties contribute to the
guidance of visual attention, but selection history can influence attention independent of …
