Is attention really biased toward the last target location in visual search? Attention, response rules, distractors, and eye movements

Abstract: The visual search and target-target cueing literatures have reached opposite conclusions about whether a shift of attention is biased toward or away from, respectively, previously attended target locations. In this article, we aimed to figure out why. The main differences between the two experimental approaches concern (1) the stimulus-response translation rules (Bwhat^identification keypresses vs. Bwhere^localization responses), (2) the amount of attention required in order to identify the target, and (3) dis… Show more

“…Fifth, color priming effects (i.e., effects of repeating colors) in these experiments were weak to non-existent (though generally positive), including in the procedures of Experiment 1 in which attention to color was unambiguously necessary to respond appropriately (though not necessarily to plan the response). These findings are consistent with the literature, as it is known that the advantage for repeating the target color is usually only robust when the target is accompanied by visual distractors, such that attention to color becomes useful or indispensable for finding the target (e.g., Goolsby & Suzuki, 2001;Hilchey, Antinucci, Lamy & Pratt, 2019;Huffman & Pratt, 2017;Milliken, Joordens, Merikle, & Seiffert, 1998;Yashar, White, Fang & Carrasco, 2017). Given that Experiment 1 demonstrates that attention to the target color after it has been found does not result in robust color priming effects, our suspicion is that attention to color generally is not sufficient for color priming.…”

“…Third, we wish to reiterate that the kind of visuomotor repetition effect (the PRC, more specifically) that is shown here is not related to the efficiency of target detection, the initial exogenous or endogenous shift of attention to a target location, or to visual search at all, as shown elsewhere (e.g., Hilchey, Antinucci, Lamy & Pratt, 2019;Hilchey, Rajsic, Huffman, Klein & Pratt, 2018;Hilchey, Rajsic, Huffman & Pratt, 2017b;Zehetleitner, Rangelov & Muller, 2012). The effects occur after an initial shift of attention toward a stimulus.…”

“…Despite extensive research in recent years on the concepts of contextual cues in psychology and neuroscience, systematic explanation of the concepts in consumer behavior is lacking. Thus, based on the results of multidisciplinary research in psychology and psychiatry, this study assigns individuals' attention distribution when facing multisource information interference (Fortenbaugh et al , 2017), visual search positioning (Hilchey et al , 2019), emotional semantic understanding (Hou and Lu, 2018), and the process of continuous expectation are defined as contextual cue effects. Reportedly, contextual cues can activate individual spontaneous memory (Sonne et al , 2019), which implies that once consumers are deeply impressed with the contextual cues of a brand or business, they can be engraved in the subconscious mind of consumers.…”

“…In recent years, the research on contextual cue effects has also garnered considerable attention of scholars. The research findings have been used in visual search (Hilchey et al , 2019), auditory comprehension, speech perception, context perception, spatial contextual positioning, cognitive memory processing (Goujon and Fagot, 2013), goal selection and decision-making, and other fields (Kunar et al , 2014).…”
