Abstract This paper describes Guided Search 6.0 (GS6), a revised model of visual search.
When we encounter a scene, we can see something everywhere. However, we cannot …

The present paper argues for the notion that when attention is spread across the visual field
in the first sweep of information through the brain visual selection is completely stimulus …

A recent study has proposed that attentional window determines when the color singletons
capture visual attention (Belopolsky, Zwaan, Theeuwes, & Kramer, 2007). The present study …

Attention describes the ability to selectively process a particular aspect of the environment at
the expense of others. Despite the significance of selective processing, the types and …

The occurrence of an unexpected, infrequent sound in an otherwise homogeneous auditory
background tends to disrupt the ongoing cognitive task. This “deviation effect” is typically …

Accumulating evidence is supporting the hypothesis that our selective attention is a
manifestation of mechanisms that evolved early in evolution and are shared by many …

Efficient processing of complex social and biological stimuli associated with threat is crucial
for survival. Previous studies have suggested that threatening stimuli such as angry faces …

Visual search is the act of looking for a predefined target among other objects. This task has
been widely used as an experimental paradigm to study visual attention, and because of its …

The vigilance decrement is a decline in signal detection rate that occurs over time on a
sustained-attention task. The effect has typically been ascribed to conservative shifts of …

The attentional blink (AB) reveals temporal limits of goal-driven attention: the second of two
proximate targets presented in a rapid stream of non-targets is often missed. In the …
