Selection history: How reward modulates selectivity of visual attention

M Failing, J Theeuwes - Psychonomic bulletin & review, 2018 - Springer
Visual attention enables us to selectively prioritize or suppress information in the
environment. Prominent models concerned with the control of visual attention differentiate …

[HTML][HTML] Visual selection: Usually fast and automatic; seldom slow and volitional

J Theeuwes - Journal of cognition, 2018 - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Recently it was argued that in addition to top-down and bottom-up processes, lingering
biases of selection history play a major role in visual selection (Awh, Belopolsky & …

When goals conflict with values: counterproductive attentional and oculomotor capture by reward-related stimuli.

ME Le Pelley, D Pearson, O Griffiths… - Journal of Experimental …, 2015 - psycnet.apa.org

Evidence for second-order singleton suppression based on probabilistic expectations.

BY Won, M Kosoyan, JJ Geng - Journal of Experimental …, 2019 - psycnet.apa.org
Decades of research in attention have shown that salient distractors (eg, a color singleton)
tend to capture attention. However, in most studies, singleton distractors are just as likely to …

Neurochemistry of visual attention

DEL Lockhofen, C Mulert - Frontiers in neuroscience, 2021 - frontiersin.org
Visual attention is the cognitive process that mediates the selection of important information
from the environment. This selection is usually controlled by bottom-up and top-down …

Learning to suppress a location does not depend on knowing which location

Y Gao, J Theeuwes - Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 2022 - Springer
