filter theory |
blocks irrelevant information so that only relevant information comes through early selection = the filter for attention occurs early in the stream of information processing late selection = when the filter for attention occurs late in the stream of information processing (new theory - only the intensity is diminished, therefore it can still get detected if it is of high priority load theory = the amount of processing an unattented stimuli will recieve depends upon how difficult it is to process the unattended target |
|
Resource theory |
attention is limited, like a spot light = resources of attention can be shone on specific visual locations of interest covert shift of attention = movement of eyes overt = dont move eyes zoom lens model dual task paradigm = when tasks are performed simultaneously resources are split between the tasks and the performance goes down due to decreased resources available for the individual task |
|
normalization model of attention |
can amplify information which is necesary and need to focus on while being able to decrease sensetivity towards distractors |
