The phenomenon referred to as illusory line-motion (ILM; O. Hikosaka, S. Miyauchi, & S. Shimojo, 1993a) has been described as a measure of the local facilitation of attention gradient. However, J.

	Fruitful visual search: Inhibition of return in a virtual foraging task Psychonomic Bulletin & Review ; Inhibition of return (IOR) has long been viewed as a foraging facilitator in visual search. We investigated the contribution of IOR in a task that approximates natural foraging more closely than typical visual search tasks.

British Journal of Biomedical Science ; ABSTRACT This review aims to provide an insight into the nature and mechanisms of the visual screening of cytological preparations and to discuss the implications for current practice. Visual perception in cytology is under-researched and deserves further investigation. Fundamental issues to be
	Spatial context learning in visual search and change detection Perception and Psychophysics ; Humans conduct visual search more efficiently when the same display is presented for a second time, showing learning of repeated spatial contexts. In this study, we investigate spatial context learning in two tasks: visual search and change detection. In both tasks, we ask whether subjects learn to
	Visualized representation of visual search patterns for a visuospatial attention test Behavior Research Methods ; Cancellation tests have been widely used in clinical practice and in research to evaluate visuospatial attention, visual scanning patterns, and neglect problems. The aim of the present work is to present a visualized interface for the visuospatial attentional assessment system that can be employed
	The visual search analogue of latent inhibition: Implications for theories of irrelevant stimulus processing in normal and schizophrenic groups Psychonomic Bulletin & Review ; Latent inhibition (LI) is a robust phenomenon that is demonstrated when a previously inconsequential stimulus is less effective in a new learning situation than a novel stimulus.

	Color singleton pop-out does not always poop out: An alternative to visual search Psychonomic Bulletin & Review ; Folk psychology suggests that when an observer views a scene, a unique item will stand out and draw attention to itself. This belief stands in contrast to numerous studies in visual search that have found that a unique target item (e.g., a unique color) is not identified more quickly than a
