How Visual Information Affects a Spatial Task
To examine the information content of mental representations of three-dimensional objects, 21 participants performed a mental rotation task with the classic Shepard and Metzler (1971) figures. We compared conditions in which the figures were monochromatic, a condition in which they were colored consistently, and a condition in which they were colored inconsistently. Color affected performance o...
متن کاملCombining information in different color-coding mechanisms to facilitate visual search
An earlier experiment using a yes-no procedure with a search accuracy task [A.L. Nagy, G. Thomas, Distractor heterogeneity, attention, and color in visual search tasks, Vision Research, 43 (2003) 1541-1552] showed that observers could combine information in different cardinal color mechanisms to facilitate search performance. In the experiments reported here we attempted to replicate these resu...
متن کاملCombining visual and verbal information in an impression-formation task.
Female students rated males characterized by a photograph and 2 personalitytrait adjectives in terms of desirability as a date. The experimental design tested how these 3 component pieces of information were integrated to form the overall impression. The results supported the hypothesis that the 2 adjectives were simply averaged together, but there was a strong interaction between adjectives an...
متن کاملThe guidance of spatial attention during visual search for color combinations and color configurations.
Representations of target-defining features (attentional templates) guide the selection of target objects in visual search. We used behavioral and electrophysiological measures to investigate how such search templates control the allocation of attention in search tasks where targets are defined by the combination of 2 colors or by a specific spatial configuration of these colors. Target display...
متن کاملCombining visual and auditory information.
Robust perception requires that information from by our five different senses be combined at some central level to produce a single unified percept of the world. Recent theory and evidence from many laboratories suggests that the combination does not occur in a rigid, hardwired fashion, but follows flexible situation-dependent rules that allow information to be combined with maximal efficiency....
