The impending demise of the item in visual search
J Hulleman, CNL Olivers - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2017 - cambridge.org
The way the cognitive system scans the visual environment for relevant information–visual
search in short–has been a long-standing central topic in vision science. From its inception …

A critical review of the cognitive and perceptual factors influencing attentional scaling and visual processing
An important mechanism used to selectively process relevant information in the environment
is spatial attention. One fundamental way in which spatial attention is deployed is attentional …

Identifying visual targets amongst interfering distractors: Sorting out the roles of perceptual load, dilution, and attentional zoom
Visual selection is imperfect; whenever a complex array of objects is processed,
representations of multiple objects are likely to be active simultaneously. A full account of …

Zooming in on the cause of the perceptual load effect in the go/no-go paradigm.
Abstract Perceptual load theory (Lavie, 2005) claims that attentional capacity that is not used
for the current task is allocated to irrelevant distractors. It predicts that if the attentional …

On the brink: The demise of the item in visual search moves closer
J Hulleman, CNL Olivers - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2017 - search.proquest.com
We proposed to abandon the item as conceptual unit in visual search and adopt a fixation-
based framework instead. We treat various themes raised by our commentators, including …

Opening the window: Size of the attentional window dominates perceptual load and familiarity in visual selection.
Abstract Perceptual load theory (Lavie, 1995) claims that visual selection is determined both
by the perceptual demands a display imposes and by the perceptual resources an observer …

Large inter-individual and intra-individual variability in the effect of perceptual load
H Marciano, Y Yeshurun - PLoS One, 2017 - journals.plos.org
This study examined whether the recurrent difficulty to replicate results obtained with
paradigms measuring distractor processing as a function of perceptual load is due to …

Set size slope still does not distinguish parallel from serial search
Much of the evidence for theories in visual search (including Hulleman & Olivers'[H&O's])
comes from inferences made using changes in mean RT as a function of the number of …

Searching for unity: Real-world versus item-based visual search in age-related eye disease
When studying visual search, item-based approaches using synthetic targets and distractors
limit the real-world applicability of results. Everyday visual search can be impaired in …
