Reflexive Spatial Attention to Goal Directed Reaching

Social interaction involves cues such as gaze direction, head orientation, and pointing gestures that serve to automatically orient attention to a specific referent or spatial location. In this paper we demonstrate that an observed reaching action similarly results in a reflexive shift in attention as evidenced by faster responses that are congruent with the direction of the reach, than respons...

Visual Adaptation to Goal-directed Hand Actions

Prolonged exposure to visual stimuli, or adaptation, often results in an adaptation "aftereffect" which can profoundly distort our perception of subsequent visual stimuli. This technique has been commonly used to investigate mechanisms underlying our perception of simple visual stimuli, and more recently, of static faces. We tested whether humans would adapt to movies of hands grasping and plac...

Is goal-directed attentional guidance just intertrial priming? A review.

According to most models of selective visual attention, our goals at any given moment and saliency in the visual field determine attentional priority. But selection is not carried out in isolation--we typically track objects through space and time. This is not well captured within the distinction between goal-directed and saliency-based attentional guidance. Recent studies have shown that selec...

Response of the Pre-oriented Goal-directed Attention to Usual and Unusual Distractors: A Preliminary Study

Introduction: In this study, we investigated the distraction power of the unusual and usual images on the attention of 20 healthy primary school children. Methods: Our study was different from previous ones in that the participants were asked to fix the initial position of their attention on a pre-defined location after being presented with unusual images as distractors. The goals were prese...

Running head : ROLE OF ATTENTION IN GOAL PRIMING 2

Objective: Several lab and field experiments have shown that goal priming interventions can be highly effective in promoting healthy food choices. Less is known, however, about the mechanisms by which goal priming affects food choice. This experiment tested the hypothesis that goal priming affects food choices through changes in visual attention. Specifically, it was hypothesized that priming w...
