The threat-advantage hypothesis that threatening or negative faces can be discriminated
preattentively has often been tested in the visual search paradigm with schematic stimuli …

Prior work suggests that nonface objects of expertise can interfere with the perception of
faces when the two categories are alternately presented, suggesting competition for shared …

Familiar items are found faster than unfamiliar ones in visual search tasks. This effect has
important implications for cognitive theory, because it may reveal how mental …

Previous studies have shown that in visual search, varying the target and distractor
familiarity produces a search asymmetry: Detecting a novel target among familiar distractors …

Objective: An experiment aimed to test whether design of symbology to produce visual
search asymmetries might facilitate target detection in cluttered displays. Background: A …

To lessen users' feelings of unease and stress after icons are updated, this study

The current study aims to explore one factor that likely contributes to these statistical
regularities, familiarity. Are highly familiar stimuli perceived more readily? Previous work …

We have previously reported evidence that repetitions of letters, colors, sizes, and common
