Perceptual learning and attention: Reduction of object attention limitations with practice
Perceptual learning has widely been claimed to be attention driven; attention assists in choosing the relevant sensory information and attention may be necessary in many cases for learning. In this paper, we focus on the interaction of perceptual learning and attention - that perceptual learning can reduce or eliminate the limitations of attention, or, correspondingly, that perceptual learning ...
متن کاملAttention and Perceptual Learning
Perceptual learning as a phenomenon. We are all of us experts. Each one of us is able to effortlessly distinguish between a large number of people that we encounter in our everyday lives. When considered as stimuli in the abstract this is a difficult discrimination task as the stimuli are all rather similar to one another, yet we can identify an individual in a moment with an accuracy that woul...
متن کاملExogenous Attention Enables Perceptual Learning.
Practice can improve visual perception, and these improvements are considered to be a form of brain plasticity. Training-induced learning is time-consuming and requires hundreds of trials across multiple days. The process of learning acquisition is understudied. Can learning acquisition be potentiated by manipulating visual attentional cues? We developed a protocol in which we used task-irrelev...
متن کاملPerceptual load modulates object-based attention.
Two experimental series are reported using both reaction time (RT) and a data-limited perceptual report to examine the effects of perceptual load on object-based attention. Perceptual load was manipulated across 3 levels by increasing the complexity of perceptual judgments. Data from the RT-based experiments showed object-based effects when the target was near the cued location. Results from th...
متن کاملAttention, word position, and perceptual learning
This paper presents the results of an experiment which tested the roles of directed attention and lexical bias on perceptual learning. Attention was manipulated by directing a group of listeners to be aware the speaker had an ambiguous pronunciation of /s/. Lexical bias was manifested by where in the word the ambiguous /s/ was positioned – the first or final syllable. In all conditions listener...
