Chronometric evidence for entrained attention
|
Recent theories of dynamic attention have renewed the interest in temporal context as a determinant of attention. The mechanism of dynamic attention remains unclear, and both stochastic time perception processes and deterministic oscillators are possible. The results of Experiment 1 demonstrate that attention can be guided by isochronous series of warning stimuli and that elapsed time cannot fully account for this effect. Experiment 2 indicates that temporal structure can be used over a limit...

Attention based visual processes
Canadian Psychology
; Attention is often compared to a spotlight or focus of enhanced processing. We have found that this gain comes with certain unexpected costs. Specifically, judgements of positions of stimuli surrounding an attended event are distorted, repelled away from the attentional focus. But there is more to
