Exogenous Attention Enables Perceptual Learning.
Practice can improve visual perception, and these improvements are considered to be a form of brain plasticity. Training-induced learning is time-consuming and requires hundreds of trials across multiple days. The process of learning acquisition is understudied. Can learning acquisition be potentiated by manipulating visual attentional cues? We developed a protocol in which we used task-irrelev...
متن کاملExogenous attention facilitates location transfer of perceptual learning.
Perceptual skills can be improved through practice on a perceptual task, even in adulthood. Visual perceptual learning is known to be mostly specific to the trained retinal location, which is considered as evidence of neural plasticity in retinotopic early visual cortex. Recent findings demonstrate that transfer of learning to untrained locations can occur under some specific training procedure...
متن کاملAttention and Perceptual Learning
Perceptual learning as a phenomenon. We are all of us experts. Each one of us is able to effortlessly distinguish between a large number of people that we encounter in our everyday lives. When considered as stimuli in the abstract this is a difficult discrimination task as the stimuli are all rather similar to one another, yet we can identify an individual in a moment with an accuracy that woul...
متن کاملDoes Perceptual Learning Require Consciousness or Attention?
It has been proposed that visual attention and consciousness are separate [Koch, C., & Tsuchiya, N. Attention and consciousness: Two distinct brain processes. Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 11, 16-22, 2007] and possibly even orthogonal processes [Lamme, V. A. F. Why visual attention and awareness are different. Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 7, 12-18, 2003]. Attention and consciousness converge w...
متن کاملAttention, word position, and perceptual learning
This paper presents the results of an experiment which tested the roles of directed attention and lexical bias on perceptual learning. Attention was manipulated by directing a group of listeners to be aware the speaker had an ambiguous pronunciation of /s/. Lexical bias was manifested by where in the word the ambiguous /s/ was positioned – the first or final syllable. In all conditions listener...
