Age-Group Differences in Saccadic Interference
We examined age-group differences in a saccadic interference task, which requires that participants execute a saccade (eye movement) toward an abrupt-onset visual target presented to the right or left of fixation. On some trials, we imposed diffuse interference by bilateral (top and bottom) flashes of light presented 20 to 210 ms after target onset. When the flashes followed the cue at shorter intervals, time to execute a saccade was slowed relat…
Directed Forgetting of a Single Item
In two experiments, we investigated directed forgetting of a single item. We presented participants with two phone numbers to remember and instructed half of the participants to forget the first phone number. The first number was either learned on a single trial (Experiment 1) or on three trials (Experiment 2). In Experiment 1, there was evidence of directed forgetting as a result of differential encoding; the forget instruction affected recall a…
Age Differences in the Strategic Allocation of Visual Attention
The allocation of visual spatial attention was investigated in two groups of adults, younger (n = 24; M = 19 yrs) and older (n = 24; M = 68 yrs). Two sequential target displays were presented on a computer screen. If a target letter appeared in Display 1, then observers were to identify a target letter in Display 2. Based on accuracy of Display 1 target detection, the older adults had a more restricted range of visual processing than the younger …
Time Course of Location-Cuing Effects With a Probability Manipulation
A location-cuing paradigm was used to study the effects of cue probability on the allocation of visual attention. A cue was used to indicate the likely location of a target (out of 4 possible target locations), with 8 cue-target onset intervals, ranging from 0 to 233 ms. There were 3 blocked proportions of correctly cued trials, 100%, 75%, and 50%. The observers had higher target discrimination accuracy at highly probable locations than at less p…
Attention Operating Characteristics in a Location-Cuing Task
The authors studied the allocation of visual attention in the location-cuing paradigm in order to differentiate between 2 general classes of mechanisms: (a) switching attention across locations on different trials and (b) sharing attention across multiple locations within a trial. In Experiment 1, attention was directed by the use of central cues of 4 different cue validities: 100%, 80%, 50%, or 20% (in separate blocks). In Experiment 2, the perc…
