An Investigation of Attentional and Inhibitory Processes During Active Visual Search in Humans (NCT06587113)
Contributions of Attentional and Inhibitory Functioning to Saccadic Decisions
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The goal of this study is to investigate the finding that there are large individual differences in how participants move their eyes during active visual search. For example, some individuals tend to fixate, that is point their eyes steadily at a single location, for longer than other individuals before moving to another location. This experiment will use behavioral tasks to measure an individual's attentional and inhibitory functioning, and then see how each of these contributes to between-participant variability in eye movement behavior during visual search.
