The conditional approach to evaluating detection performanceAttention, Perception, & Psychophysics - Tập 84 - Trang 1393-1402 - 2021
Wolf Schwarz
In many applied single-point Yes/No signal-detection studies, the main interest is to evaluate the observer’s sensitivity, based on the observed rates of hits and false alarms. For example, Kostopoulou, Nurek, Cantarella et al. (2019, Medical Decision Making, 39, 21–31) presented general practitioners (GPs) with clinical vignettes of patients showing various cancer-related symptoms, and asked them...... hiện toàn bộ
Out of sight, out of mind: Matching bias underlies confirmatory visual searchAttention, Perception, & Psychophysics - Tập 79 - Trang 498-507 - 2016
Jason Rajsic, J. Eric T. Taylor, Jay Pratt
Confirmation bias has recently been reported in visual search, where observers who were given a perceptual rule to test (e.g. “Is the p on a red circle?”) search stimuli that could confirm the rule stimuli preferentially (Rajsic, Wilson, & Pratt, Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 41(5), 1353–1364, 2015). In this study, we compared the ability of concrete and abs...... hiện toàn bộ
The role of crowding in parallel search: Peripheral pooling is not responsible for logarithmic efficiency in parallel searchAttention, Perception, & Psychophysics - Tập 80 - Trang 352-373 - 2017
Anna Madison, Alejandro Lleras, Simona Buetti
Recent results from our laboratory showed that, in fixed-target parallel search tasks, reaction times increase in a logarithmic fashion with set size, and the slope of this logarithmic function is modulated by lure-target similarity. These results were interpreted as being consistent with a processing architecture where early vision (stage one) processes elements in the display in exhaustive fashi...... hiện toàn bộ
The initial stage of visual selection is controlled by top-down task set: new ERP evidenceAttention, Perception, & Psychophysics - Tập 73 - Trang 113-122 - 2010
Ulrich Ansorge, Monika Kiss, Franziska Worschech, Martin Eimer
Salient visual singleton stimuli produce spatial cueing effects indicative of attentional capture only when they match current task sets, suggesting that capture is subject to top-down control. However, such task-set contingent capture effects could be associated with the top-down controlled disengagement of attention from non-matching stimuli that follows their initial bottom-up salience-driven s...... hiện toàn bộ
Does grasping capacity influence object size estimates? It depends on the contextAttention, Perception, & Psychophysics - Tập 79 - Trang 2117-2131 - 2017
Elizabeth S. Collier, Rebecca Lawson
Linkenauger, Witt, and Proffitt (Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 37(5), 1432–1441, 2011, Experiment 2) reported that right-handers estimated objects as smaller if they intended to grasp them in their right rather than their left hand. Based on the action-specific account, they argued that this scaling effect occurred because participants believed their right h...... hiện toàn bộ
Spatial attention and conscious perception: the role of endogenous and exogenous orientingAttention, Perception, & Psychophysics - Tập 73 - Trang 1065-1081 - 2011
Ana B. Chica, Stefano Lasaponara, Lorena Chanes, Antoni Valero-Cabré, Fabrizio Doricchi, Juan Lupiáñez, Paolo Bartolomeo
Attention has often been considered to be a gateway to consciousness (Posner, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 91(16), 7398–7403, 1994). However, its relationship with conscious perception (CP) remains highly controversial. While theoretical models and experimental data support the role of attention in CP (Chica, Lasaponara, Lupiáñez, Doricchi, & Bar...... hiện toàn bộ
Amodal completion is modulated by lightness similarityAttention, Perception, & Psychophysics - Tập 76 - Trang 98-111 - 2013
Juno Kim, Kelly Jeng, Barton L. Anderson
The strength of amodal completion is known to be modulated by contour relationships and global shape. Some researchers have shown that amodal completion also depends on surface similarity, but they have not distinguished the relative importance of similarity in surface representations either pre or post lightness constancy. In the experiments reported here, we aimed to determine whether amodal com...... hiện toàn bộ
The role of higher order image statistics in masking scene gist recognitionAttention, Perception, & Psychophysics - Tập 72 - Trang 427-444 - 2010
Lester C. Loschky, Bruce C. Hansen, Amit Sethi, Tejaswi N. Pydimarri
In the present article, we investigated whether higher order image statistics, which are known to be carried by the Fourier phase spectrum, are sufficient to affect scene gist recognition. In Experiment 1, we compared the scene gist masking strength of four masking image types that varied in their degrees of second- and higher order relationships: normal scene images, scene textures, phase-randomi...... hiện toàn bộ
