Learning to suppress a distractor may not be unconscious

Francisco Vicente-Conesa et al.

Summary: The additional singleton task is a popular paradigm for exploring visual statistical learning and selective attention. In this task, participants are instructed to quickly find a target with a different shape among distractors. Some trials include a singleton distractor with a different color, making the search more difficult. The typical results show that participants learn to ignore the area where the singleton distractor appears most frequently.

Surprisingly inflexible: Statistically learned suppression of distractors generalizes across contexts

Jasper de Waard et al.

Summary: The study reveals that participants learned to suppress high-probability distractor locations even without conscious awareness of the spatial regularities. However, the suppression effects were found to be independent of context, showing a de-prioritization of high-probability locations that remained consistent regardless of the context.

Spatial suppression due to statistical regularities in a visual detection task

Dirk van Moorselaar et al.

Summary: Research has shown that observers can learn the likely location of salient singleton distractors during visual search. Results demonstrate that attentional capture at high-probability distractor locations is reduced, but not completely eliminated, while target processing at these locations is selectively impaired on distractor-present displays.

Updating Contextual Sensory Expectations for Adaptive Behavior

Ambra Ferrari et al.

Summary: The brain constructs predictive models of the environment by internalizing statistical regularities in sensory inputs, shaping our perception and reactions. Contextual expectations may need revision as the context changes, but this issue has been neglected in previous research. This fMRI study explores how contextual visual expectations spread throughout the cortical hierarchy and found that the emergence of contextual expectation suppression occurs progressively across cortical areas, with insula, inferior frontal gyrus, and posterior parietal cortex showing the first suppression. These effects are selective to task-relevant expectations.

Punishment-Modulated Attentional Capture Is Context Specific

Laurent Gregoire et al.

Summary: The study found that attentional bias related to punishment is specific to context, indicating that the stimulus-punishment associations learned in a specific context bias attention in another context.

Context isn't everything: Search performance is influenced by the nature of the task but not the background

Brett A. Cochrane et al.

Summary: Research has shown that environmental cues can influence task performance, and executing tasks can automatically adjust search strategies for participants. However, the study results indicate that the human visual system prioritizes task-relevant information while disregarding irrelevant background information.

The warning stimulus as retrieval cue: The role of associative memory in temporal preparation

Sander A. Los et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates how the warning stimulus S1 can serve as an implicit retrieval cue to modulate temporal preparation for the impending target stimulus S2 in a warned reaction time task, consistent with the multiple trace theory of temporal preparation.

Distractor filtering is affected by local and global distractor probability, emerges very rapidly but is resistant to extinction

Matteo Valsecchi et al.

Summary: The effects of statistical learning on distractor location persist even when distractor occurrence probabilities are equalized and the distractor is completely omitted. Filtering at a specific location is influenced by both the rate of distractor occurrence and the global distractor probability. The asymmetrical rate of learning during acquisition and extinction affects the degree of suppression at a specific distractor location.

Statistical learning of target selection and distractor suppression shape attentional priority according to different timeframes

Valeria Di Caro et al.

Summary: New research suggests that attentional and oculomotor control are influenced by past experience, resulting in selection and suppression history effects. While selection history effects appear to be long-lasting, the durability of suppression history effects is still debated. Experiments showed that suppression history effects are relatively short-lived, while selection history effects can persist over time in the same experimental context. This indicates that different mechanisms support learning-induced plasticity triggered by selection and suppression history.

Proactive distractor suppression elicited by statistical regularities in visual search

Changrun Huang et al.

Summary: The study explored whether distractors presented more frequently at one location are subject to proactive spatial suppression. The results indicate that through statistical learning, locations likely to contain distractors are proactively suppressed.
