There are two objectives of this experiment. The first is to test the effectiveness of various soil treatments on cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum) canopy cover. The second is to compare the two treatment types side by side to evaluate their relative effectiveness in treating cheatgrass. The treatments we selected are easily...
When observers monitor for infrequent signals for extended durations, they generally experience a decline in detections over time. This decline is termed the vigilance decrement. Current theories of vigilance attribute the decrement to three potential mechanisms: conservative shifts in response bias, losses of sensitivity, and an increased rate of attentional...
