The authors present a theory of stochastic interactive parallel processing with special
emphasis on channel interactions and their relation to system capacity. The approach is …

Evidence accumulation models (EAMs) have been the dominant models of speeded
decision-making for several decades. These models propose that evidence accumulates for …

The visual system analyses information by decomposing complex objects into simple
components (visual features) that are widely distributed across the cortex 1, 2. When several …

An unresolved question is how much information can be remembered from visual scenes
when they are inspected by saccadic eye movements. Subjects used saccadic eye …

We contrast 2 theories within whose context problems are conceptualized and data
interpreted. By traditional linear theory, a dependent variable is the sum of main-effect and …

We report research designed to accomplish two goals. We first consider the question, raised
by Coltheart (1980) and others, of whether three measures of visible and informational …

Describes a theory of visual information acquisition and visual memory. The theory has 2
major components. First, the visual system's initial sensory response to a short-duration, low …

Processing visually degraded stimuli is a common experience. We struggle to find house
keys on dim front porches, to decipher slides projected in overly bright seminar rooms, and …

Recent theories of attention have emphasized the role of object-based representations in
visual selection. One defining property of any object is spatiotemporal continuity. The …

In a novel choice attention-gating paradigm, observers monitor a stream of 3× 3 letter arrays
until a tonal cue directs them to report 1 row. Analyses of the particular arrays from which …
