Retail investor attention and stock price crash risk: Evidence from China (2019, background): “Recently, more and more studies find that limited attention of retail investors not only limits their learning and decision-making process but also affects their trading behavior (Hong and Stein, 1999; Pashler et al., 2001; Statman et al., 2006; Aboody et al., 2010).”
A dual-stage two-phase model of selective attention. (2010, background): “For instance, it is well known that stimuli in the environment can automatically control behavior by activating associated responses (cf. Desimone & Duncan, 1995; Kinchla, 1992; Pashler, Johnston, & Ruthruff, 2001).”
A taxonomy of external and internal attention. (2011, neutral): “Attentional mechanisms evolved out of necessity to efficiently focus limited processing capacity on the most important information relevant to ongoing goals and behaviors (Pashler et al. 2001).”
Stress, Cognition, and Human Performance: A Literature Review and Conceptual Framework (2013, background): “These findings appear related to the assertions of Beilock and Carr (2001) and others (Allport, Antonis, & Reynolds, 1972; Beilock, Carr, MacMahon, & Starkes, 2002; Katz & Epstein, 1991) reviewed previously. Carver and Scheier (1981) found this degradation to be particularly likely of complex tasks ”
Can students really multitask? An experimental study of instant messaging while reading (2010, background): “It is plausible that with each IM interruption, students experienced a delay or bottleneck in alternating attentional resources between IMing and reading, referred to as the psychological refractory period (Pashler, 1993, 1994; Pashler & Johnston, 1998; Pashler et al., 2001).”
Individual differences in working memory capacity and dual-process theories of the mind. (2004, background): “Pure instances of attentional capture do occur, but they are more infrequent than situations in which goal-directed attention sets the preconditions for such automatic processing to take place (Pashler et al., 2001).”
The Computational and Neural Basis of Cognitive Control: Charted Territory and New Frontiers (2014, background): “This idea has roots in early " multiple resources " theories of attention (Allport, 1982; Logan, 1985; Navon & Gopher, 1979; Wickens, 1984).”
Visual attention: The past 25 years (2011, background): “…et al., 2011; Montagna, Pestilli, & Carrasco, 2009; Muller & Rabbitt, 1989b; Pestilli & Carrasco, 2005; Pestilli et al., 2007; Prinzmetal, McCool, & Park, 2005; Yeshurun & Rashal, 2010), and when responding to the cues may even impair performance (Carrasco, Loula, & Ho, 2006; Hein et al.,…”
The effects of emotion on attention: A review of attentional processing of emotional information (2010, background): “Thus, if two tasks tap into different resource systems, then there will be little competition for resources whereas if tasks are similar, interference occurs (see Allport, 1980, for a review).”
