A new estimation of the duration of attentional dwell time.
How rapidly can attention move from one object to the next? Previous studies in which the dwell time paradigm was used have estimated attentional switch times of 200-500 msec, results incompatible with the search rate estimates of 25-50 msec shown in numerous visual search studies. It has been argued that dwell times are so long in the dwell time paradigm because the attentional shifts measured...
متن کاملAttentional dwell times for targets and masks.
Studies on the temporal dynamics of attention have shown that the report of a masked target (T2) is severely impaired when the target is presented with a delay (stimulus onset asynchrony) of less than 500 ms after a spatially separate masked target (T1). This is known as the attentional dwell time. Recently, we have proposed a computational model of this effect building on the idea that a stimu...
متن کاملMindfulness training affects attention--or is it attentional effort?
Improvements in attentional performance are at the core of proposed mechanisms for stress reduction in mindfulness meditation practices. However, this claim can be questioned because no previous studies have actively manipulated test effort in control groups and controlled for effects of stress reduction per se. In a blinded design, 48 young, healthy meditation novices were randomly assigned to...
متن کاملDwell Time Refinement
The abstraction of a hybrid system by eliminating one or more of its continuous variables is in general too coarse. In this situation, dwell time refinement may be useful. The idea is to impose explicit constraints on the time that may resp. must be spent (or “dwelled”) between successive mode switches. We show how the required constraints can be inferred automatically (with acceptable cost). T...
متن کاملFeature-based memory-driven attentional capture: visual working memory content affects visual attention.
In 7 experiments, the authors explored whether visual attention (the ability to select relevant visual information) and visual working memory (the ability to retain relevant visual information) share the same content representations. The presence of singleton distractors interfered more strongly with a visual search task when it was accompanied by an additional memory task. Singleton distractor...
