Abstract:
Pattern discrimination in the presence of distractor patterns is improved when the stimulus display is preceded by a precue designating the location of the target pattern. Experiments were conducted to determine how big an improvement the precue produced. The specific question of whether the observer is able to process selectively the stimulus pattern in the cued location of the display and ignore the patterns of the noncued locations was addressed. In order to study this, reaction time for pattern discrimination on a blank background (no distractors) was compared with the reaction time when t

Abstract:
In our daily life, attention plays a fundamental role in governing our visual experience. Indeed, every visual experience consists in an overwhelming amount of visual information reaching our visual system. Selective attention allows us to select the relevant information, which is important for our goals, while ignoring the irrelevant information in our environment. However, selective attention is not a unitary notion, but a multi-faceted concept constituted by different components. Several models on how the attentional resources can be allocated in the space identify two distinct components:

Recently, two attentional modes have been associated with specifi c eye movement patterns during scene processing. Ambient mode, characterized by short fi xations and long saccades during early scene inspection, is associated with localization of objects.

Abstract:
Contingent capture occurs when distractors that share distinguishing characteristics with a target capture attention and slow down target identification. Conventionally, this slowdown has been attributed to the time wasted by an inappropriate attentional shift to the location of a distractor. To examine this account, we obviated the spatial shift by presenting distractors at fixation, and measured contingent capture both directly by measuring response times and indirectly by estimating the duration for which the target remains vulnerable to backward masking.

Abstract:
Attention can be placed on others. Now it is you on whom one’s attention is placed, and what one accesses in focusing on you are your mental states. One does not experience them directly; rather, your movements provide focal attention with a causal channel: they ‘intimate’ your thoughts to one. Empathy is analogous to listening to another, itself a kind of attention. So empathy, one’s awareness of another in their otherness, is an attentional state. While phenomenologists have claimed that empathy, the ability to apprehend the beliefs and emotions of others, is a perceptual skill, this chapter

Attention is of fundamental importance in the philosophy of mind, in epistemology, in action theory, and in ethics. This book presents an account in which attention, not self, explains the experiential and normative situatedness of human beings in the world. Attention consists in an organization of awareness and action at the centre of which there is neither a practical will nor a phenomenological witness. Attention performs two roles in experience, a selective role of placing and a focal role of access. Attention improves our epistemic standing, because it is in the nature of attention to set

Drawing usually involves making marks by adding and accumulating material (graphite, ink, etc.) on a surface. In contrast, Owen's drawings are made purely by erasure; a gradual, irreversible process of removing the ink of the printed image by hand. This series was made using illustrated pages from books on cinema, usually large, ‘coffee table’ publications focusing on a particular genre, director or actor. T

Abstract:
Visual attention can be seen as a computational resource that aids perception in any part of the visual field to which it is applied. This resource is limited, however, as it cannot be applied everywhere at the same time, but constitutes an attentional "focus". It has been known since the groundbreaking work of Helmholtz (1896) that attention has mobility and can be willfully deployed in the periphery of the visual field. In the absence of such "effort of will" it tends to return to the region in or near the center of the visual field.
