Statistical learning of distractor locations is dependent on task context

J De Waard, D Van Moorselaar, L Bogaerts… - Scientific Reports, 2023 - nature.com
Through statistical learning, humans can learn to suppress visual areas that often contain
distractors. Recent findings suggest that this form of learned suppression is insensitive to …

M Turatto - … of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and …, 2023 - psycnet.apa.org
Habituation represents a well-established form of learning in various neuroscience domains.
However, cognitive psychologists working in the field of visual attention have largely …

Context-specific habituation: A review

A Dissegna, M Turatto, C Chiandetti - Animals, 2021 - mdpi.com
Simple Summary Habituation reflects the ability to learn to ignore irrelevant stimuli, which
form the vast majority of the sensory input impinging on any organism's sensory systems at a …

Habituation to onsets is controlled by spatially selective distractor expectation.

M Turatto, M Valsecchi - Journal of Experimental Psychology …, 2023 - psycnet.apa.org
Habituation to onset distractors has been shown to be stronger the higher the distractor
probability. However, since in previous studies distractor probability covaried with distractor …

Perceptual and conceptual novelty independently guide infant looking behaviour: a systematic review and meta-analysis

L Kunin, SH Piccolo, R Saxe, S Liu - Nature Human Behaviour, 2024 - nature.com
Human infants are born with their eyes open and an otherwise limited motor repertoire; thus,
studies measuring infant looking are commonly used to investigate the developmental …

Distractor filtering is affected by local and global distractor probability, emerges very rapidly but is resistant to extinction

M Valsecchi, M Turatto - Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 2021 - Springer
Abstract Effects of statistical learning (SL) of distractor location have been shown to persist
when the probabilities of distractor occurrence are equalized across different locations in a …

Learning to ignore visual onset distractors hinges on a configuration-dependent coordinates system.

M Turatto, M De Tommaso… - Journal of Experimental …, 2024 - psycnet.apa.org
Decrement of attentional capture elicited by visual onset distractors, consistent with
habituation, has been extensively characterized over the past several years. However, the …

Dynamic suppression of likely distractor locations: Task-critical modulation

F Allenmark, M Stanković, HJ Müller, Z Shi - Visual Cognition, 2024 - Taylor & Francis
When a distractor frequently appears in a certain region of a search display, it interferes less
with performance, reflecting learned distractor suppression. While this effect is well …
