Statistical Regularities Attract Attention when Task-Relevant
Visual attention seems essential for learning the statistical regularities in our environment, a process known as statistical learning. However, how attention is allocated when exploring a novel visual scene whose statistical structure is unknown remains unclear. In order to address this question, we investigated visual attention allocation during a task in which we manipulated the conditional ...
متن کاملStatistical regularities guide the spatial scale of attention.
Visual scenes contain information on both a local scale (e.g., a tree) and a global scale (e.g., a forest). The question of whether the visual system prioritizes local or global elements has been debated for over a century. Given that visual scenes often contain distinct individual objects, here we examine how regularities between individual objects prioritize local or global processing. Partic...
متن کاملModels of Overt Attention
Formal models of overt attention have played an important role in motivating and interpreting studies of visual search and other tasks. This chapter briefly summarizes some general principles of attention, some general distinctions between models of overt attention, and some examples of existing models of overt attention in visual search, reading, free viewing, and interactive behaviors. Althou...
متن کاملStatistical regularities reduce perceived numerosity.
Numerical information can be perceived at multiple levels (e.g., one bird, or a flock of birds). The level of input has typically been defined by explicit grouping cues, such as contours or connecting lines. Here we examine how regularities of object co-occurrences shape numerosity perception in the absence of explicit grouping cues. Participants estimated the number of colored circles in an ar...
متن کاملStatistical regularities compress numerical representations.
Numerical information can be perceived at multiple levels of abstraction (e.g., one bird, or a flock of birds). The unit of input for numerosity perception can therefore involve a discrete object, or a set of objects grouped by shared features (e.g., color). Here we examine how the mere co-occurrence of objects shapes numerosity perception. Across three between-subjects experiments, observers v...
