Here, we examined the interaction between memory-guided attention (contextual cueing) and stimulus-driven attention (unexpected colour singletons). In two visual search experiments with different set sizes, colour singletons were introduced unexpectedly in some trials after repeated configurations were used to establish contextual cueing. Reaction times were rapidly impacted by both contextual cueing and colour singletons, without significant interaction. However, introducing color singletons also impeded reaction times for novel configurations without color singletons, while repeated configurations were not impacted. These results suggest that on a trial level, contextual cueing and colour singleton effects are largely two independent factors driving selective attention, but there is evidence for a more general disruption of introducing distraction in cases where memory cannot be relied upon, suggesting a more complex interaction between attentional influences.KEYWORDS: Visual searchcontextual cueingpop-out effectepisodic memory AcknowledgmentsWe thank Emma Takizawa, Ramana Housman, and Sarah Zhang for participant recruitment and data collection.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).","PeriodicalId":47961,"journal":{"name":"VISUAL COGNITION","volume":" 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135243046","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the most influential drivers of temporal distortions is attention, where heightened attention dilates subjective time. But an equally important feature of subjective experience involves not just the objects of attention, but also what information will naturally be remembered or forgotten, independent of attention (i.e., intrinsic image memorability). Here we test how memorability influences time perception. Observers viewed scenes in an oddball paradigm, where the last scene could be a forgettable “oddball” amidst memorable ones, or vice versa. Subjective time dilation occurred only for forgettable oddballs, but not memorable ones – demonstrating an oddball effect where the oddball did not differ in low-level visual features, image category, or even subjective memorability. But more importantly, these results emphasize how memory can interact with temporal experience: memorable beginnings may put people in an efficient encoding state, which may in turn influence which moments are dilated in time.KEYWORDS: Time perceptiontime dilationoddball effectmemorabilityscene perception Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Author contributionsMG, JDKO, and WAB designed the research and wrote the manuscript.

In three pre-registered experiments, we tested the automaticity of links between body shape perception and trait inference by manipulating cognitive load during a response-competition task. In Experiment 1 (N = 52), participants categorised body shapes in the context of compatible or incompatible trait words, under high and low cognitive load. Bayesian multi-level modelling of reaction times indicated that interference caused by the compatibility of trait cues was insensitive to concurrent demands placed on working memory resources. These findings indicate that the linking of body shapes and traits is resource-light and more “automatic” in this sense. In Experiment 2 (N = 39) and 3 (N = 70), we asked participants to categorise trait words in the context of task-irrelevant body shapes. Under these conditions, no evidence of interference was found, regardless of concurrent load. These results suggest that while body shapes and trait concepts can be linked in an automatic manner, such processes are sensitive to wider contextual factors, such as the order in which information is presented.KEYWORDS: Social cognitionbody perceptionautomaticitytrait inferencecognitive load Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).","PeriodicalId":47961,"journal":{"name":"VISUAL COGNITION","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136113723","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two experiments collected measures of attentional momentum and representational momentum. In Experiment 1, attentional momentum based on differences between detecting targets opposite or orthogonal to a cued location was not correlated with representational momentum based on M displacement for the final location of a target. In Experiment 2, attentional momentum based on facilitation in detecting a gap on a probe presented in front of the final target location was not correlated with representational momentum based on a weighted mean of the probabilities of a same response in probe judgments of the final target location.

(Citation1999) to ensure that timing in the attentional momentum task was consistent with timing in the representational momentum task.2 Hubbard (Citation2019) suggested that an understanding of momentum-like processes needed to consider all of Marr’s (Citation1982) levels of analysis. Accordingly, although attentional momentum and representational momentum appear similar at the level of computational theory (i.e., both facilitate processing of spatial information expected to be present in the near future and both involve displacement across space, Hubbard, Citation2014, Citation2015), the current data suggest attentional momentum and representational momentum could be different at the level of representation and algorithm or the level of implementation (i.e., involve different mechanisms).","PeriodicalId":47961,"journal":{"name":"VISUAL COGNITION","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135895634","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
