Chao, Hsuan-Fu – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
This study investigated the active inhibition of precued distractor locations. In this study, the distractor location was precued by an arrow. Experiment 1 indicated that a valid precue could facilitate target localization. Experiment 2 demonstrated that when conflict trials were included, the distractor precue benefit was eliminated. Experiment 3…

Yang, Cheng-Ta – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2011
Change detection requires perceptual comparison and decision processes on different features of multiattribute objects. How relative salience between two feature-changes influences the processes has not been addressed. This study used the systems factorial technology to investigate the processes when detecting changes in a Gabor patch with visual…

Liu, Yeou-Teh; Mayer-Kress, Gottfried; Newell, Karl M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
This study investigated whether the level of practice interacts with the initial conditions (here manipulated as preparatory movements) and task difficulty (ball angular velocity and friction) in determining the stability of movement coordination for a roller ball motor task. Practice level and task difficulty were manipulated as two control…
