Statistical regularities guide the spatial scale of attention.
Visual scenes contain information on both a local scale (e.g., a tree) and a global scale (e.g., a forest). The question of whether the visual system prioritizes local or global elements has been debated for over a century. Given that visual scenes often contain distinct individual objects, here we examine how regularities between individual objects prioritize local or global processing. Partic...
متن کاملStatistical Regularities Attract Attention when Task-Relevant
Visual attention seems essential for learning the statistical regularities in our environment, a process known as statistical learning. However, how attention is allocated when exploring a novel visual scene whose statistical structure is unknown remains unclear. In order to address this question, we investigated visual attention allocation during a task in which we manipulated the conditional ...
متن کاملconstruction and validation of the translation teacher competency test and the scale of students’ perceptions of translation teachers
the major purpose of this study was to develop the translation teacher competency test (ttct) and examine its construct and predictive validity. the present study was conducted in two phases: a qualitative phase as well as a quantitative phase. in the first phase of the study, the author attempted to find out the major areas of competency required for an academic translation teacher. the second...
Statistical regularities reduce perceived numerosity.
Numerical information can be perceived at multiple levels (e.g., one bird, or a flock of birds). The level of input has typically been defined by explicit grouping cues, such as contours or connecting lines. Here we examine how regularities of object co-occurrences shape numerosity perception in the absence of explicit grouping cues. Participants estimated the number of colored circles in an ar...
متن کاملStatistical regularities compress numerical representations.
Numerical information can be perceived at multiple levels of abstraction (e.g., one bird, or a flock of birds). The unit of input for numerosity perception can therefore involve a discrete object, or a set of objects grouped by shared features (e.g., color). Here we examine how the mere co-occurrence of objects shapes numerosity perception. Across three between-subjects experiments, observers v...
