  2. Posner cueing task - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posner_cueing_task

    Posner devised a scheme of using valid and invalid cues across trials. In valid trials, the stimulus is presented in the area as indicated by the cue. For example, if the cue was an arrow pointing to the right, the subsequent stimulus indeed did appear in the box on the right.

  3. Two-alternative forced choice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-alternative_forced_choice

    For example in a lexical decision task a participant observes a string of characters and must respond whether the string is a "word" or "non-word". Another example is the random dot kinetogram task, in which a participant must decide whether a group of moving dots are predominately moving "left" or "right".

  4. Inhibition of return - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inhibition_of_return

    One form of cue that can be implemented in an inhibition of return task are exogenous cues. Exogenous cues are stimuli that are produced in the environment surrounding. Because one's attention is shifted to the stimulus without much thought or effort, these cues are seen as a form of reflex that the person has low control over.

  5. Visual spatial attention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_spatial_attention

    In Posner's cueing paradigm, [4] the task was to detect a target that could be presented in one of two locations and respond as quickly as possible. At the start of each trial, a cue is presented that either indicates the location of the target (valid cue) or indicates the incorrect location thus misdirecting the observer (invalid cue).

  6. Attentional shift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attentional_shift

    Posner's model of attention includes a posterior attentional system involved in the disengagement of stimuli via the parietal cortex, the shifting of attention via the superior colliculus and the engagement of a new target via the pulvinar. The anterior attentional system is involved in detecting salient stimuli and preparing motor responses.

  9. Take-the-best heuristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Take-the-best_heuristic

    The question was: How can one infer which of two objects, for example, city A with cue profile (100101010) and city B with cue profile (100010101), scores higher on the established criterion, i.e., population size? The take-the-best heuristic simply compares the profiles lexicographically, just as numbers written in base two are compared: the ...
