Perceptual grouping via spatial selection in a focused-attention task
Theories of attention can be separated into those that select by location, and those that select by location-invariant representation. Experiments demonstrating stronger interference or facilitation from distractors grouped by nonspatial features with the target than ungrouped distractors have been considered as evidence for the selection of location-invariant representations. However, few stud...
متن کاملAuditory perceptual grouping and attention in dyslexia.
Despite dyslexia affecting a large number of people, the mechanisms underlying the disorder remain undetermined. There are numerous theories about the origins of dyslexia. Many of these relate dyslexia to low-level, sensory temporal processing deficits. Another group of theories attributes dyslexia to language-specific impairments. Here, we show that dyslexics perform worse than controls on an ...
متن کاملInteractions between attention and perceptual grouping in human visual cortex.
Freeman et al. demonstrated that detection sensitivity for a low contrast Gabor stimulus improved in the presence of flanking, collinearly oriented grating stimuli, but only when observers attended to them. By recording visual event-related potentials (ERPs) elicited by a Gabor stimulus, we investigated whether this contextual cueing effect involves changes in the short-latency afferent visual ...
متن کاملRole of attention and perceptual grouping in visual statistical learning.
Statistical learning has been widely proposed as a mechanism by which observers learn to decompose complex sensory scenes. To determine how robust statistical learning is, we investigated the impact of attention and perceptual grouping on statistical learning of visual shapes. Observers were presented with stimuli containing two shapes that were either connected by a bar or unconnected. When ob...
متن کاملPerceptual Grouping and Change Detection Perceptual Grouping in Change Detection Perceptual Grouping and Change Detection
Detection of an item changing its location from one instance to another is typically unaffected by changes in the shape or color of contextual items. However, we demonstrate here that such location change detection is severely impaired if the elongated axes of contextual items change orientation, even though individual locations remain constant and even though the orientation was irrelevant to ...
