Previous research has demonstrated that social cues (eg, eye gaze, walking direction of
biological motion) can automatically guide people's focus of attention, a well-known …

Our minds are severely limited in how much information they can extensively process, in
spite of being massively parallel at the visual end. When people attempt to track moving …

Recent advances in pedagogical research have called attention to the dynamic nature of the
teaching and learning process in which the actors mutually influence one another. The …

Studies of visual object processing have long appreciated that semantic meaning is

Our percepts usually derive their structure from particular cues in the incoming sensory
information, but this is not so in the phenomenon of scaffolded attention—where shifting …
