... the factors giving rise to the Hand-Proximity Effects (HPEs), we manipulated the organization of items in a visual search display. In two experiments, we observed the absence of HPE. Specifically, in Experiment 1, we presented the search display in only one half of the monitor (split diagonally), which could...

...Alejandro Lleras; Zhiyuan Wang; Anna Madison; Simona Buetti; Rolf Zwaan; John Henderson Recently, Wang, Buetti and Lleras ( 2017 ) developed an equation to predict search performance in heterogeneous visual search scenes (i.e., multiple types of non-target objects simultaneously present) based...

...Zhiyuan Wang; Simona Buetti; Alejandro Lleras Previous work in our lab has demonstrated that efficient visual search with a fixed target has a reaction time by set size function that is best characterized by logarithmic curves. Further, the steepness of these logarithmic curves is determined...
