Hills, Thomas T.; Jones, Michael N.; Todd, Peter M. – Psychological Review, 2012
Do humans search in memory using dynamic local-to-global search strategies similar to those that animals use to forage between patches in space? If so, do their dynamic memory search policies correspond to optimal foraging strategies seen for spatial foraging? Results from a number of fields suggest these possibilities, including the shared…

Davis, Gregory J.; Gibson, Bradley S. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2012
Voluntary shifts of attention are often motivated in experimental contexts by using well-known symbols that accurately predict the direction of targets. The authors report 3 experiments, which showed that the presentation of predictive spatial information does not provide sufficient incentive to elicit voluntary shifts of attention. For instance,…
