Motivationally significant stimuli show visual prior entry: evidence for attentional capture.

30 Jul 2009 Previous studies that have found attentional capture effects for stimuli of motivational significance do not directly measure initial attentional deployment, leaving it unclear to what extent these items produce attentional capture. Visual prior ...

Linear changes in the spatial extent of the focus of attention across time.

30 Jul 2009 This research examined changes in the spatial extent of focal attention over time. The Attentional Blink (impaired perception of the second of two targets) and Lag-1 sparing (the seemingly paradoxical finding that second-target accuracy is high when ...

Species of redundancy in visual target detection.

30 Jul 2009 We report a series of investigations into the effects of common names, physical identity, and physical similarity on visual detection time. The effect of these factors on the capacity of the system processing the signals was also examined. We used a ...

Object substitution masking induced by illusory masks: evidence for higher object-level locus of interference.

30 Jul 2009 A briefly presented target can be rendered invisible by a lingering sparse mask that does not even touch it. This form of visual backward masking, called object substitution masking, is thought to occur at the object level of processing. However, it ...

A model for the perception of environmental sound based on notice-events.

30 Jul 2009 An approach is proposed to shed light on the mechanisms underlying human perception of environmental sound that intrudes in everyday living. Most research on exposure-effect relationships aims at relating overall effects to overall exposure ...

Neuropsychological functions in patients with bipolar I and bipolar II disorder.

30 Jul 2009 The literature reports persistent cognitive impairments in patients with bipolar disorder even after prolonged remission. However, a majority of studies have focused only on bipolar I disorder (BP-I), primarily because bipolar II disorder (BP-II) is ...

Stimulant treatment reduces lapses in attention among children with ADHD: the effects of methylphenidate on intra-individual response time distributions.

30 Jul 2009 Recent research has suggested that intra-individual variability in reaction time (RT) distributions of children with ADHD is characterized by a particularly large rightward skew that may reflect lapses in attention. The purpose of the study was to ...

A cultural task analysis of implicit independence: comparing North America, Western Europe, and East Asia.

30 Jul 2009 Informed by a new theoretical framework that assigns a key role to cultural tasks (culturally prescribed means to achieve cultural mandates such as independence and interdependence) in mediating the mutual influences between culture and ...

Exploring workload and attention measurements with uLog mouse data.

30 Jul 2009 User-system interactions (e.g., mouse clicks and movements) can be logged with the uLog computer program. A Web-based study with 20 participants was conducted to investigate the feasibility of using uLog data as an indicator of workload and ...

Allocation of effort as a function of payoffs for individual tasks in a multitasking environment.

30 Jul 2009 SYNWORK1 software allows the examination of how payoffs affect the allocation of effort by people when they perform four different tasks (memory search, arithmetic, visual monitoring, and auditory monitoring). In a previous study (Wang, Proctor, & ...
