- Optimal task-sets override attentional capture by rare cues, Schönhammer & Kerzel (2018). Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance. Outcome recorded: mixed.
Experiment 1 replicated Folk and Remington's (2015) Experiment 3 in that rare onset cues elicited validity effects, even though the target was a red feature target. Hence, the attention-driving signal elicited by rare onset cues outweighed the task-set for red color, and the cues consequently captured attention against observers' goals. In Folk and Remington's (2015) Experiment 3, rare onset cues elicited larger validity effects for long than short lags, suggesting that…
