Abstract
This perspective reflects on the significant influence that the Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance (JEP) has had on my research into the involuntary capture of attention. From foundational debates on automatic versus goal-driven attentional control to incorporating the concept of selection history, JEP has consistently provided key theoretical insights and robust methodological frameworks. I describe how specific contributions from the journal have shaped my approach to studying distractor suppression and the role of learned routines in managing attention. Finally, I consider how JEP continues to guide emerging directions in attentional research. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).
