Attention could alter the tuning of a neural receptive field. I.E. a neuron that was tuned to vertical lines might respond better to a different orientation under the influence of attention.
True or False?
True
100
A condition wherein a portion of the visual field has no or abnormal vision
What is Visual-field defect

The time between the onset of one stimulus and the onset of another
What is Stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA)
200
A false combination of features from two or more objects.
What is Illusory conjunction
200
The failure to notice a change between two scenes.The meaning of the scenes is not altered
What is Change blindness
200
An effect of attention on the neuron, that responds more precisely to the stimulus.
What is Sharper Tuning

Damage in which lobe of the brain most commonly causes a visual field defect?
What is Parietal lobe

Cues can be valid or invalid. Choose the correct choice/s.
a-RTs are shorter on invalid cue trials
b-RTs are shorter on valid cue trials
c-RTs are longer on invalid cue trials
d-RTs are longer on valid cue trials
What is b and c

The idea that there is a preattentive stage of basic feature processing followed by second, attention-demanding stage is the core of
What is feature integration theory
300
A failure to notice or report a stimulus that would easily be noticed if it were attended to
What is Inattentional blindness
300
Area of the extrastriate visual cortex that is activated by human faces

The inability to attend to or respond to a stimulus in the visual field is known as
What is Neglect
400
During search, THIS stops you from getting stuck continually revisiting one spot.
What is Inhibition of return (IOR)
400
If you were searching for bowls, you would be guided by the knowledge that bowls must rest on surfaces, they do not float.
What is Scene-based guidance
400
This model believes that the attended region can grow or shrink depending on the size of the area to be processed.
What is Zoom lens
400
Area of the extrastriate visual cortex that is activated more by images of places
What is Parahippocampal place area
400
The inability to perceive a stimulus to one side of the point of fixation in the presence of another stimulus,typically in a comparable position in the other visual field
What is Extinction
500
This model believes attention is restricted in space and moves from one point to the next.
What is Spotlight
500
This searching strategy involves moving form item to item in order to find the correct target; is very inefficient.
What is Serial self-terminating search
500
The nonselective pathway computes the distribution of a scenes properties, such as color and orientation.
What is ensemble statistics
500
An effect of attention where the neuron reacting to the presence of a stimulus gives a bigger response
What is Response Enhancement
500
Inability to perceive more than one object at a time
