Chota and Van der Stigchel (this issue), Iamshchinina, Christophel, Gayet, and Rademaker (this issue), Lorenc and Sreenivasa (this issue), and Teng and Postle (this issue) each present a commentary regarding Xu (2020) where I conclude that ...

Luck et al. (2021) reviewed evidence that observers can learn to suppress attentional capture by salient distractors. Several commentaries were written in response to this review paper, many of which raised important and interesting issues....

The present study aimed to determine whether attentional prioritization of visual stimuli associated with punishment transfers across conceptual knowledge independently of physical features. Participants performed a Stroop task in which wor...

Expert radiologists can quickly extract a basic "gist" understanding of a medical image following less than a second exposure, leading to above-chance diagnostic classification of images. Most of this work has focused on radiology tasks (su...

In the target article, Luck et al. (2020) argue for progress that has been made in the debate surrounding the factors that determine whether a stimulus captures attention, offering points of agreement in addition to highlighting specific ou...

Whether it is possible to ignore a physically salient distractor has been a topic of active debate over the past 25 years, with empirical evidence for and against each of the theoretical stances. We put forward that predictive processing ma...

Gaspelin and Luck describe the signal suppression hypothesis, which proposes that attentional suppression prevents the capture of visual attention by salient distractors. We will discuss several problems with this proposal. On a theoretical...

Studies suggest looming motion represents a special class of attentional capture stimulus due to behavioral urgency: the need to act upon objects moving toward us in an environment. In particular, one theory suggests that faster reaction ti...

Strong evidence supporting the top-down modulation of attention has come from studies in which participants learned to suppress a singleton in a heterogeneous four-item display. These studies have been criticized on the grounds that the dis...

In her commentary, Xu (2020) admonishes the reader that "To have a full understanding of the cognitive mechanisms underlying VWM [visual working memory], both behavioral and neural evidence needs to be taken into account. This is a must, an...
