2. What does the zoom lens model of visual attention suggest?
- The window of attention can be increased and decreased with task demands
- Attention selects from objects themselves, rather than potentially empty regions of space
- Can conserve cognitive resources by avoiding attending to irrelevant regions of visual space
- Attention enhances the efficiency of detection of events within its beam
3. What does Posner's (1980) cueing paradigm suggest?
- Target detection is fastest when it is presented at the cued location
- Target detection is slowest when it is presented at the cued location
- Target detection is more accurate when it is presented at the cued location
- Target detection is less accurate when it is presented at the cued location
4. What does an invalid cue do in the cueing paradigm (Posner, 1980)?
- Indicates the speed that the target will appear
- Indicates the location a target will appear in
- Indicates a location where the target will not appear
- Indicates the physical characteristics of the target
5. What does the spotlight model of visual attention suggest?
