Attention Capture in Visual Search: The Effects of Individual Visual Working Memory Capacity and Gaming Experience

Creator:: Hauck, Christopher
Abstract:: Prior research has demonstrated that unique and salient objects in a visual display may capture an individual’s attention. However, researchers have shown that some individuals, such as those with video game experience, are better at resisting salient-driven capture compared to others (Chisholm et al., 2010). The first manuscript presented in...

Visual Hindsight Bias and Emotion Perception

Creator:: Burgess, Emily
Abstract:: Visual hindsight bias, also known as the “saw-it-all-along” effect, is the tendency to overestimate one’s perceptual abilities with the aid of outcome knowledge. The present study investigated visual hindsight bias for facial stimuli. Experiment 1 adopted the visual hindsight bias paradigm from Harley et al. (2004) and replicated their findings...

Processing Facial Attractiveness Without Central Attention: Evidence from Electrophysiological Measures

Creator:: Robison, Bianca R.
Abstract:: Jung, Ruthruff, Tybur, Gaspelin, and Miller (2012) reported behavioral evidence that the perception of facial attractiveness requires central attentional resources. We evaluated this conclusion using more sensitive electrophysiological measures. Participants first made an attractiveness rating on faces to validate the assigned level of attractiveness (low vs. high). They then performed...

The Temporal Dynamics of Visual Attention in Processing Facial Emotion

Creator:: Wiebke, Ashley, Weber, Emily, Griswold, Sarah, Markovics, Alyssia, and Lien, Mei-Ching
Abstract:: In rapid serial visual presentation, identification of the second of two targets is impaired when it closely follows the first target. This phenomenon is known as the attentional blink (AB) effect. Awh and his colleagues (2004) found that face discrimination was immune to AB when performed together with a digit...

Beyond the attentional blink : An electrophysiological study of processing facial emotional expression

Creator:: Stewart, Alicia V.
Abstract:: Behavioral studies have observed facial recognition bypass attentional limitations when performed with non-facial recognition tasks (e.g., a digit task). Awh et al. (2004) proposed this was due to multi-channel processing, where non-facial objects utilize a feature-based channel leaving the configural-based channel available for facial processing. We tested this hypothesis using...

An Investigation of Age-Related Differences in Value-Driven Attentional Capture

Creator:: Naylor, Jamie
Abstract:: Previous research on age-related differences in attentional capture has indicated that older adults are more susceptible to distraction than younger adults and this has been interpreted as a reduced capacity to inhibit distraction in late life. Recently, however, there have been discrepancies in the literature about in what circumstances older...

Locus of Case Mixing in Visual Word Recognition: What Do Priming Effects Tell Us?

Creator:: Briggs, Holly, Thody, Andrea, and Lien, Mei-Ching
Abstract:: Perea, Vergara-Martínez, and Gomez (2015) claimed a late locus of case mixing in visual word recognition. In their masking priming study, participants performed a lexical-decision task on an uppercase target, which was preceded by an identity or unrelated prime (e.g., “plane” or “music” followed by “PLANE”, respectively) in lowercase or...

Attentional Bias Toward Facial Emotion Expression : Orienting vs. Disengagement

Creator:: Martin, Nicole R.
Abstract:: The present study examined involuntary attentional bias toward facial emotion expression. Particularly, the study examined two different attentional components for emotional processing, namely, orienting vs. disengagement. A cueing paradigm using two cue presentation times (250ms and 350ms) was used to determine if attention would be involuntarily captured by an irrelevant...

Memory capacity in switching search strategies: Are low-capacity individuals more susceptible to capture by distractors?

Creator:: Thompson, Lane and Naylor, Jamie
Abstract:: Lien, Ruthruff, and Naylor (2014) recently reported that switching target search strategies (e.g., from identifying the letter that is uniquely colored [singleton search] to the letter that has a specific color [feature search] or vice versa) made the attentional system more vulnerable to capture by salient-but-irrelevant objects. In the present...

An Electrophysiological Study of Attention Capture: Does Rarity Enable Capture?

Creator:: Noesen, Birken
Abstract:: Several behavioral studies have suggested that rarity is critical for enabling irrelevant, salient objects to capture attention. We tested this hypothesis using the event-related potential (ERP) component, N2pc, thought to reflect attentional allocation. A cue display was followed by a target display in which participants identified the letter in a...
