Recently, there have been a number of advances in technology, including in mobile devices,
globalization of companies, display technologies and healthcare, all of which require …

The way the cognitive system scans the visual environment for relevant information–visual
search in short–has been a long-standing central topic in vision science. From its inception …

Adverse listening conditions increase the demand on cognitive resources needed for
speech comprehension. In an exploratory study, we aimed to identify independent power …

Introduction Adverse listening conditions can drive increased mental effort during listening.
Neuroelectromagnetic alpha oscillations (8–13 Hz) may index this listening effort, but …

Masking experienced when target speech is accompanied by a single interfering voice is
often primarily informational masking (IM). IM is generally greater when the interferer is …

We proposed to abandon the item as conceptual unit in visual search and adopt a fixation-
based framework instead. We treat various themes raised by our commentators, including …

Training can improve detection of auditory signals in noise. This learning could potentially
occur through active top-down selection mechanisms or stable changes in signal …

An important application of cognitive architectures is to provide human performance models
that capture psychological mechanisms in a form that can be “programmed” to predict task …

Studies supporting learning-induced reductions in listening-related cognitive load have
lacked procedural learning controls, making it difficult to determine the extent to which …

Much of the evidence for theories in visual search (including Hulleman & Olivers'[H&O's])
comes from inferences made using changes in mean RT as a function of the number of …
