In visual search tasks, observers look for targets among distractors. In the lab, this often
takes the form of multiple searches for a simple shape that may or may not be present …

The primate brain codes perceived events in a distributed fashion, which raises the question
of how the codes referring to the same event are related to each other. Recent findings …

Visual input is processed in parallel in the early stages of the visual system. Later, object
recognition processes are also massively parallel, matching a visual object with a vast array …

What we have recently seen and attended to strongly influences how we subsequently
allocate visual attention. A clear example is how repeated presentation of an object's …

We investigated the role of spatial probabilities in target location during participants'
performance of a visual search task. Experiments 1 and 2 demonstrated that spatial …

Cognitive control covers a broad range of cognitive functions, but its research and theories
typically remain tied to a single domain. Here we outline and review an associative learning …

According to most models of selective visual attention, our goals at any given moment and
saliency in the visual field determine attentional priority. But selection is not carried out in …

Recent studies have identified between-trial priming effects in visual search tasks, but often
with constraints on the possible similarities or changes across successive trials, and usually …

Humans possess a primitive memory system for attention deployments that allows quick
reorientation of visual attention to stimuli that are relevant to behavior at any given moment …

Can individuals look for multiple objects at the same time? A simple question, but answering
it has proven difficult. In this review, we describe possible cognitive architectures and their …
