What to expect where and when: How statistical learning drives visual selection
While the visual environment contains massive amounts of information, we should not and
cannot pay attention to all events. Instead, we need to direct attention to those events that …

The past, present, and future of selection history
The last ten years of attention research have witnessed a revolution, replacing a theoretical
dichotomy (top-down vs. bottom-up control) with a trichotomy (biased by current goals …

Anticipatory distractor suppression elicited by statistical regularities in visual search
Salient yet irrelevant objects often capture our attention and interfere with our daily tasks.
Distraction by salient objects can be reduced by suppressing the location where they are …

[HTML][HTML] Neural mechanisms underlying distractor inhibition on the basis of feature and/or spatial expectations
A rapidly growing body of research indicates that inhibition of distracting information may not
be under flexible, top-down control, but instead heavily relies on expectations derived from …
