Nat Commun
. 2024 Oct;
15(1):9383.
PMID: 39477923
The rapid release of high-performing computer vision models offers new potential to study the impact of different inductive biases on the emergent brain alignment of learned representations. Here, we perform...

Sci Adv
. 2024 Sep;
10(39):eadl1776.
PMID: 39321304
Modular and distributed coding theories of category selectivity along the human ventral visual stream have long existed in tension. Here, we present a reconciling framework-contrastive coding-based on a series of...

Bates C, Alvarez G, Gershman S
Commun Psychol
. 2024 Sep;
2(1):3.
PMID: 39242907
Over the last few decades, psychologists have developed precise quantitative models of human recall performance in visual working memory (VWM) tasks. However, these models are tailored to a particular class...

Konkle T, Alvarez G
Nat Commun
. 2022 Jan;
13(1):491.
PMID: 35078981
Anterior regions of the ventral visual stream encode substantial information about object categories. Are top-down category-level forces critical for arriving at this representation, or can this representation be formed purely...

Forman I, Chen Y, Scholl B, Alvarez G
Atten Percept Psychophys
. 2021 Apr;
83(5):2151-2158.
PMID: 33811279
Although most visual aesthetic preferences are likely driven by a mix of personal, historical, and cultural factors, there are exceptions: some may be driven by adaptive mechanisms of visual processing,...

. 2020 Aug;
20(8):24.
PMID: 32841317
Attentional tracking and working memory tasks are often performed better when targets are divided evenly between the left and right visual hemifields, rather than contained within a single hemifield (Alvarez...

Perspect Psychol Sci
. 2020 Aug;
15(5):1284-1288.
PMID: 32735472
The alarm has been raised on so-called driverless dilemmas, in which autonomous vehicles will need to make high-stakes ethical decisions on the road. We argue that these arguments are too...

Stormer V, Cohen M, Alvarez G
J Cogn Neurosci
. 2019 Mar;
31(7):937-947.
PMID: 30912729
Feature-based attention is known to enhance visual processing globally across the visual field, even at task-irrelevant locations. Here, we asked whether attention to object categories, in particular faces, shows similar...

Brady T, Alvarez G, Stormer V
J Neurosci
. 2018 Dec;
39(6):1100-1108.
PMID: 30541914
How people process images is known to affect memory for those images, but these effects have typically been studied using explicit task instructions to vary encoding. Here, we investigate the...

. 2018 Jun;
178:133-146.
PMID: 29852427
To what extent are people's moral judgments susceptible to subtle factors of which they are unaware? Here we show that we can change people's moral judgments outside of their awareness...
