“…Our results instead suggest that the MTL is selectively engaged during the on-line search behavior. This is consistent with several accounts of putative MTL engagement in search, including: 1) eye movement studies suggesting that the on-line search process requires memory (Peterson et al, 2001(Peterson et al, , 2008McCarley et al, 2003); 2) elicitation of MTL engagement by novel stimuli, as required by pop-out (Parker et al, 1998;Knight, 1996;von Restorff, 1933); 3) hypothesized MTL engagement in IOR as a visual foraging behavior (Phillmore & Klein, 2019); 4) a role for the MTL in detection of familiar stimuli (match enhancement; Dudukovic, Preston, Archie, Glover, & Wagner, 2011); 5) a role for the hippocampus in relational processing of images (Córdova, Turk-Browne, & Aly, 2019); and 6) a navigation account of visual search whereby a geometric map of the visual search display is formed in the entorhinal grid cell system (Nau et al, 2018;Meister & Buffalo, 2016). These accounts are not mutually exclusive, and it is possible that future theoretical work will bring them together into a unified theory.…”
