Paying Attention through Eye Movements: A Computational Investigation of the Premotor Theory of Spatial Attention
Growing evidence indicates that planning eye movements and orienting visuospatial attention share overlapping brain mechanisms. A tight link between endogenous attention and eye movements is maintained by the premotor theory, in contrast to other accounts that postulate the existence of specific attention mechanisms that modulate the activity of information processing systems. The strong assump...
متن کاملRecent developments in a computational theory of visual attention (TVA)
This article reviews the foundations of the theory of visual attention (TVA) and describes recent developments in the theory. TVA is based on the principle of biased competition: All possible visual categorizations ascribing features to objects compete (race) to become encoded into visual short-term memory before it is filled up. Each of the possible categorizations is supported by sensory evid...
متن کاملThe eye dominates in guiding attention during simultaneous eye and hand movements.
Prior to the onset of a saccade or a reach, attention is directed to the goal of the upcoming movement. However, it remains unknown whether attentional resources are shared across effectors for simultaneous eye and hand movements. Using a 4-AFC shape discrimination task, we investigated attentional allocation during the planning of a saccade alone, reach alone, or combined saccade and reach to ...
متن کاملThe role of visual attention in saccadic eye movements.
The relationship between saccadic eye movements and covert orienting or visual spatial attention was investigated in two experiments. In the first experiment, subjects were required to make a saccade to a specified location while also detecting a visual target presented just prior to the eye movement. Detection accuracy was highest when the location of the target coincided with the location of ...
متن کاملVisual attention modifies spectral sensitivity of nystagmic eye movements
If we look out of the window of a travelling train our eyes move rapidly back and forth (saccadic movement). With no attention to individual objects, gaze velocity is low but nystagmic frequency is high (stare nystagmus). If we are interested in individual objects, the angular velocity of gaze is high and the nystagmic frequency low (look nystagmus) (Ter Braak, J.W.G. (1936). Untersuchungen ueb...
