1.
Dodwell G, Nako R, Eimer M
Psychophysiology . 2024 Apr; 61(8):e14582. PMID: 38641955
Efficiently selecting task-relevant objects during visual search depends on foreknowledge of their defining characteristics, which are represented within attentional templates. These templates bias attentional processing toward template-matching sensory signals and...
2.
Dodwell G, Nako R, Eimer M
J Cogn . 2024 Jan; 7(1):11. PMID: 38223224
Representations of task-relevant object attributes (attentional templates) control the adaptive selectivity of visual processing. Previous studies have demonstrated that templates involved in the guidance of attention during visual search are...

Baumeler D, Nako R, Born S, Eimer M
J Vis . 2020 Apr; 20(3):10. PMID: 32232375
Attention shifts to particular objects in the visual field can distort perceptual location judgments. Visual stimuli are perceived to be shifted away from the current focus of attention (the attentional...
4.
Berggren N, Nako R, Eimer M
J Exp Psychol Gen . 2019 Oct; 149(6):1156-1168. PMID: 31613124
Representations of known target features (attentional templates) guide attention toward target objects during visual search. Recent research has shown that templates for different target-defining attributes can be maintained simultaneously, but...
5.
Nako R, Smith T, Eimer M
J Cogn Neurosci . 2016 Jun; 28(11):1714-1727. PMID: 27315273
During visual search, target representations (attentional templates) control the allocation of attention to template-matching objects. The activation of new attentional templates can be prompted by verbal or pictorial target specifications....
6.
Nako R, Grubert A, Eimer M
J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform . 2016 May; 42(10):1571-86. PMID: 27213833
The question whether alphanumerical category is involved in the control of attentional target selection during visual search remains a contentious issue. We tested whether category-based attentional mechanisms would guide the...
7.
Wu R, Nako R, Band J, Pizzuto J, Ghoreishi Y, Scerif G, et al.
J Cogn Neurosci . 2015 Aug; 27(11):2299-307. PMID: 26244720
Visual experiences increase our ability to discriminate environmentally relevant stimuli (native stimuli, e.g., human faces) at the cost of a reduced sensitivity to irrelevant or infrequent stimuli (non-native stimuli, e.g.,...

Nako R, Smith T, Eimer M
J Cogn Neurosci . 2014 Oct; 27(5):902-12. PMID: 25321485
Visual search is controlled by representations of target objects (attentional templates). Such templates are often activated in response to verbal descriptions of search targets, but it is unclear whether search...

Nako R, Wu R, Smith T, Eimer M
J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform . 2014 May; 40(4):1283-8. PMID: 24820441
To compare the speed and efficiency of item-based and category-based attentional control during visual search for real-world objects, we measured N2pc components as electrophysiological markers of attentional target selection. In...

Nako R, Wu R, Eimer M
J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform . 2013 Jun; 40(1):50-60. PMID: 23796065
Visual search is often controlled by attentional templates that represent specific target items or target features, but can also be directed toward object categories. We studied the relationship between item-based...
