Do visual depictions of monster orcs involve visual racial stereotypes? A brief report
Orcs are monsters with origins in Irish folklore popularized in the Lord of the Rings book and movie series, and also widely used in the Dungeons and...

Control of bottom-up attention in scene cognition contributes to visual working memory performance
Several studies have investigated the relationship between working memory and attention. However, most of the relevant studies so far investigated...

An Attempt to Explain Visual Aesthetic Appreciation
We suggest an evolutionary based explanation for why humans are preoccupied with aesthetic aspects of visual input. Briefly, humans evolved to be...

Taxonomically-related Word Pairs Evoke both N400 and LPC at Long SOA in Turkish
Semantic priming in Turkish was examined in 36 right-handed healthy participants in a delayed lexical decision task via taxonomic relations using...

Age-dependent changes in the anger superiority effect: Evidence from a visual search task
The perception of threatening facial expressions is a critical skill necessary for detecting the emotional states of others and responding...
-
The reversed compatibility effect: distractors matching the response feature but not the selection feature capture attention and evoke suppression
Previous studies have shown that multiple features in attentional control settings have different effects on guiding attention. Distractors matching...

The effect of visual working memory load on attentional bias in social anxiety
Social anxiety is closely associated with abnormal attentional bias toward threatening stimuli. Although working memory plays an important role in...
-
The discrepancy in timing between synchronous signals and visual stimulation should not be underestimated
Response latency is a critical parameter in studying human behavior, representing the time interval between the onset of stimulus and the response....

Exploring the effectiveness of auditory, visual, and audio-visual sensory cues in a multiple object tracking environment
Maintaining object correspondence among multiple moving objects is an essential task of the perceptual system in many everyday life activities. A...

Open-DPSM: An open-source toolkit for modeling pupil size changes to dynamic visual inputs
Pupil size change is a widely adopted, sensitive indicator for sensory and cognitive processes. However, the interpretation of these changes is...

Adopting the visual perspective of a group member is influenced by implicit group averaging
As social entities, individuals’ perception and behaviors are susceptible to the influence of their social groups. Previous research has consistently...

The effect of emotional arousal on visual attentional performance: a systematic review
Although the arousal elicited by emotional stimuli, similarly to valence, is an integrative part of emotion theories, previous studies and reviews...

Cross-modal enhancement of spatially unpredictable visual target discrimination during the attentional blink
The attentional blink can be substantially reduced by delivering a task-irrelevant sound synchronously with the second target (T2) embedded in a...
-
Visual field asymmetries in numerosity processing
A small number of objects can be rapidly and accurately enumerated, whereas a larger number of objects can only be approximately enumerated. These subitizing...

Map** visual working memory models to a theoretical framework
The body of research on visual working memory (VWM)—the system often described as a limited memory store of visual information in service of ongoing...

Absorption relates to individual differences in visual face pareidolia
Visual face pareidolia is the experience of perceiving illusory faces in inanimate objects (e.g., rocks, buildings, appliances); however, the...

Unit 2 Overview: Neuroaesthetics Approaches to the Visual Arts—Perception Focus Topic: CGI-Generated Creative Content and Artificial Intelligence
Neuroaesthetics seeks to unravel the neural mechanisms underlying both bottom-up and top-down processes in perception. By studying how the brain... -
Responding, fast and slow: Visual detection and localization performance is unaffected by retrieval
According to action control theories, responding to a stimulus leads to the binding of the response and stimulus features into an event file....

Auditory–Visual Discriminations: Stimulus Control, Teaching Procedures, and Considerations
Stimulus control involves being more likely to engage in a target behavior in the presence of a stimulus than in its absence. These stimuli are... -
Contextual cueing of visual search reflects the acquisition of an optimal, one-for-all oculomotor scanning strategy
Visual search improves when a target is encountered repeatedly at a fixed location within a stable distractor arrangement (spatial context), compared...
