Behavioral Oscillations in Visual Attention Modulated by Task Difficulty
The spotlight of attention is full of discrete moments and operates periodically. Recently, it has been well-documented there were behavioral oscillations in visual attention, however, different periodicities were demonstrated. Task difficulty may be an important factor causing disagreement in attentional periodic patterns. The present study examined behavioral oscillations in visual attention ...
متن کاملAttentional effort modulated by task difficulty
It has been assumed that stimulus discrimination in a visual task is performed with fixed attentive effort. Here we show that attention to the same pair of stimuli can be modulated by varying the task difficulty when a task requires the discrimination of only a small number of different stimuli. We used a matching-to-sample paradigm, where a test stimulus is presented after a sample stimulus. W...
متن کاملAttention capacity and task difficulty in visual search.
When a visual search task is very difficult (as when a small feature difference defines the target), even detection of a unique element may be substantially slowed by increases in display set size. This has been attributed to the influence of attentional capacity limits. We examined the influence of attentional capacity limits on three kinds of search task: difficult feature search (with a subt...
متن کاملPost-stimulus endogenous and exogenous oscillations are differentially modulated by task difficulty
We investigate the modulation of post-stimulus endogenous and exogenous oscillations when a visual discrimination is made more difficult. We use exogenous frequency tagging to induce steady-state visually evoked potentials (SSVEP) while subjects perform a face-car discrimination task, the difficulty of which varies on a trial-to-trial basis by varying the noise (phase coherence) in the image. W...
متن کاملTask-irrelevant angry faces capture attention in visual search while modulated by resources.
We investigated the attentional capture effect of emotional faces under sufficient or restricted attentional conditions. In a modified visual search paradigm, three kinds of schematic faces (angry, happy, and neutral) served as stimuli. Participants were instructed to search for a target face indicated by a dot and to respond to the dot's position. In this design, the emotional content of the f...
