Pupil Sizes Scale with Attentional Load and Task Experience in a Multiple Object Tracking Task
Previous studies have related changes in attentional load to pupil size modulations. However, studies relating changes in attentional load and task experience on a finer scale to pupil size modulations are scarce. Here, we investigated how these changes affect pupil sizes. To manipulate attentional load, participants covertly tracked between zero and five objects among several randomly moving o...
متن کاملMultiple-object tracking while driving: the multiple-vehicle tracking task.
Many contend that driving an automobile involves multiple-object tracking. At this point, no one has tested this idea, and it is unclear how multiple-object tracking would coordinate with the other activities involved in driving. To address some of the initial and most basic questions about multiple-object tracking while driving, we modified the tracking task for use in a driving simulator, cre...
متن کاملEEG Correlates of Attentional Load during Multiple Object Tracking
While human subjects tracked a subset of ten identical, randomly-moving objects, event-related potentials (ERPs) were evoked at parieto-occipital sites by task-irrelevant flashes that were superimposed on either tracked (Target) or non-tracked (Distractor) objects. With ERPs as markers of attention, we investigated how allocation of attention varied with tracking load, that is, with the number ...
متن کاملThe Effects of Task Load and Vehicle Heterogeneity on Performance in the Multiple-vehicle Tracking Task
When crossing traffic at busy intersections, drivers must keep track of the changing positions of cyclists, pedestrians and other vehicles to avoid collision. Multiple-object tracking is the ability to monitor the positions of a number of selected moving objects (targets) among others (distractors) in a complex scene. Most young adults can track 3-5 items at once but older adults cannot track a...
متن کاملMultiple - object tracking in children : The “ Catch the Spies ” task
Multiple-object tracking involves simultaneously tracking positions of a number of target-items as they move among distractors. The standard version of the task poses special challenges for children, demanding extended concentration and the ability to distinguish targets from identical-looking distractors, and may thus underestimate children’s tracking abilities. As a result, a modified version...
