  • 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...

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • 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...
