Q J Exp Psychol (Hove) . 2021 Nov; 75(10):1904-1918. PMID: 34844477
We report two experiments investigating the effect of working memory (WM) load on selective attention. Experiment 1 was a modified version of Lavie et al. and confirmed that increasing memory...

Vision Res . 2018 Jun; 149:124-130. PMID: 29885335
Lamy, Antebi, Aviani, and Carmel (2008) reported that in a simple search task where participants located an odd coloured circle, the inter-trial relations could be used to derive robust and...

Dent K, Cole G
Q J Exp Psychol (Hove) . 2018 May; 72(5):1102-1111. PMID: 29747555
The "visual cocktail party effect" refers to superior report of a participant's own name, under conditions of inattention. An early selection account suggests this advantage stems from enhanced visual processing....

Cortis Mack C, Dent K, Ward G
J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn . 2017 Aug; 44(1):107-134. PMID: 28758775
Three experiments examined the immediate free recall (IFR) of auditory-verbal and visuospatial materials from single-modality and dual-modality lists. In Experiment 1, we presented participants with between 1 and 16 spoken...

Roberts K, Allen H, Dent K, Humphreys G
Neuroimage . 2015 Jul; 122:298-305. PMID: 26220748
Visual perception is facilitated by the ability to selectively attend to relevant parts of the world and to ignore irrelevant regions or features. In visual search tasks, viewers are able...

Dent K, Humphreys G, He X, Braithwaite J
Vision Res . 2014 Mar; 97:89-99. PMID: 24594000
In preview search when an observer ignores an early appearing set of distractors, there can subsequently be impeded detection of new targets that share the colour of this preview. This...

Dent K
Atten Percept Psychophys . 2014 Feb; 76(4):931-44. PMID: 24550041
Dent, Humphreys, and Braithwaite (2011) showed substantial costs to search when a moving target shared its color with a group of ignored static distractors. The present study further explored the...
