Attention and Effort

Journal ArticleDOI

Controlled and automatic human information processing: II. Perceptual learning, automatic attending and a general theory.

TL;DR: Tested the 2-process theory of detection, search, and attention presented by the current authors (1977) in a series of experiments and demonstrated the qualitative difference between 2 modes of information processing: automatic detection and controlled search.
Journal ArticleDOI

Half a century of research on the Stroop effect: an integrative review.

TL;DR: It is concluded that recent theories placing the explanatory weight on parallel processing of the irrelevant and the relevant dimensions are likely to be more sucessful than are earlier theories attempting to locate a single bottleneck in attention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dimensional overlap: cognitive basis for stimulus-response compatibility--a model and taxonomy.

TL;DR: The model provides a systematic account of SRC effects, a taxonomy of simple performance tasks that were hitherto thought to be unrelated, and suggestive parallels between these tasks and the experimental paradigms that have traditionally been used to study attentional, controlled, and automatic processes.

Narrowed attention; a psychological phenomenon that accompanies a certain physiological change.

TL;DR: A search for details of the relationship between narrowed attention and physiological change is described, which can be demonstrated best by uncovering its details by observing the way people judge sizes.

The basis of Ligon's theory.

Journal ArticleDOI

The influence of amobarbital (amylobarbitone) and methamphetamine on the focus of attention.

TL;DR: Using a combination of the Stroop colour-word interference test and Witkin's coloured Embedded Figures test to assess the focus of attention, methamphetamine was found to narrow attention, and amobarbital was finding to broaden attention.
