Recap: What is Filter theory, and what is the Early vs. Late Selection debate?
What is the evidence for Early Selection Theory?
*Filter before LTM
Unattended target detection (through "tap"): good in different voice (Treisman & Riley, 1969) ; poor in same voice (Treisman & Geffen, 1967)
What is the evidence for Late Selection Theory?
*Filter after entry to LTM
Semantic activation on unattended channel (McKay, 1973; Von Wright, Anderson & Stenman, 1975)
Did the Early Selectionists see the Late selection findings as critically damaging to their point of view?
No. Do not deny weak activation of semantic material on unattended channel. Indirect measures don't show it occurs to the same degree
As both theories had more core similarities than differences, where did the focus turn in studying Attention?
Studying Attention distribution across multiple channels
Who first studied Divided Attention?
(Moray, 1970)
He compared two conditions
1. Selective: Monitor for targets on one channel only
2. Exclusive OR (XOR): Monitor both channels, no simultaneous targets
What were the results?
Selective condition: It was found to be a challenging task, only 67% of targets were detected correctly (Selective Attention baseline)
XOR condition: only 54% of tones identified
What was the conclusion?
What was Moray's (1970) third study condition?
What were the results for the IOR - OR trials?
