Recent debate about the reliability of psychological research has raised concerns about the
prevalence of false positives in our discipline. However, false negatives can be just as …

In probabilistic cuing of visual search, participants search for a target object that appears
more frequently in one region of the display. This task results in a search bias toward the rich …

Extensive research has shown that statistical learning affects perception, attention, and
action control; however, few studies have directly linked statistical learning with the …

Many logistics companies adopt a manual order picking system. In related research, the
effect of emotion and engagement on work efficiency and human errors was verified …

Statistical knowledge of a target's location may benefit visual search, and rapidly
understanding the changes in regularity would increase the adaptability in visual search …

Recent studies on the probability cueing effect have shown that a spatial bias emerges
toward a location where a target frequently appears. In the present study, we explored …

When a visual search target frequently appears in one target-rich region of space,
participants learn to search there first, resulting in faster reaction time when the target …

Visual search is facilitated when observers search through repeated displays. This effect,
termed contextual cueing (CC), reflects the exceptional ability of our cognitive system to …

Prior information represents the long-term statistical structure of an environment. For
example, colds develop more often than throat cancer, making the former a more likely …

Selective attention resolves the conflict between many competing stimuli in a complex visual
environment. The locations or objects we attend to—those selected for further processing …
