Automatic and Controlled Processing of Sequences of Events.
Abstract
The characteristics of visual sequences of events that change spatially and temporally are explored. Literature on visual and auditory attention is reviewed with emphasis on spatial and temporal phenomena. A sequence of events in these experiments consisted of three line segments that occur sequentially. A multiple regression study of a sample of 35 sequences indicated that, of several variables analyzed, the angle between successive lines was a fairly good predictor of the ability of subjects to detect a target sequence. Utilizing sequences of intermediate difficulty, initial experiments evaluated performance of unpracticed subjects.
