We reduced time to detect target symbols in mock radar screens by adding perceptual boundaries that partitioned displays in accordance with task instructions. Targets appeared among distractor symbols either close to or far from the display center, and participants were instructed to find the target closest to the center. Search time increased with both number of distractors and distance of tar...

When used as a paradigm, visual search studies address questions including the nature, function, and limits of preattentive processing and focused attentio...
