  text: Comments on an article by Jan Theeuwes (see record [rid]2010-20897-002[/rid]).
    Theeuwes summarizes an impressive number of studies demonstrating interference
    by irrelevant visual singletons in computer experiments with humans. Theeuwes
    assumes that this salience-driven capture of attention is fast and occurs within
    150 ms since singleton onset, during the feed-forward phase of visual processing.
    In contrast to Theeuwes, we think that top–down contingent capture is the rule
    and explains initial and fast attention capture effects in the first feed-forward
    phase of visual processing. During a later phase and under some conditions exogenous
    capture of attention possibly follows. At the same time, we propose that the evidence
    presented by Theeuwes fails to support exogenous orienting because it fails to
    exclude a top–down contingent capture explanation. We present our arguments in
    two sections. One major source of evidence for top–down controlled attentional
    capture during the feed-forward

  text: The phenomena of illusory line motion and perceptual latency priming are both
    assumed to reflect a facilitation of perceptual latency. The explanation of illusory
    line motion presupposes that attention is distributed in a gradient fashion whereas
    this is not a necessary part of the explanation of perceptual latency priming.
    Two experiments test whether an attentional gradient is present in perceptual
    latency priming. Evidence for a gradient was found within 2.5° of visual angle
    around the attended location, but not at a distance of 5° and more. (PsycINFO
