A review of methods in the study of attention in autism (2010, methodology): “The ability to modulate attention to specific aspects of stimuli has been investigated more recently through the utilisation of paradigms developed by Lavie (2005).”
Why your stigma isn't hired : a dual-process framework of interview bias (2016, background): “When pressured by time, people have a higher need for cognitive closure, have less cognitive resources available, and thus rely more heavily on heuristics to make decisions (Type 1 processing; see De Dreu, 2003; Lavie, 2005; Roets, Van Hiel, Cornelis, & Soetens, 2008).”
Effect of action video games on the spatial distribution of visuospatial attention. (2006, background): “In accord with the previous literature (Beck & Lavie, 2005; Proksch & Bavelier, 2002), a bias was seen for central vision, with the size of the compatibility effect decreased more sharply with increasing load for peripheral than for central distractors, reflecting greater attentional resources in…”
Crossmodal spatial attention (2010, background): “97 However, the empirical evidence suggests that loading WM does not actually inﬂuence exogenous spatial orienting.”
Crossmodal binding: Evaluating the “unity assumption” using audiovisual speech stimuli (2007, background): “One possibility here involves manipulating the perceptual load of a concurrently presented secondary task ( Lavie, 2005 ).”
Evolutionary derived modulations of attention to two common fear stimuli: Serpents and hostile humans (2012, methodology): “Not only does the independence of snakes fail to conform to the Lavie Perceptual Load theory (Lavie, 1995, 2005), but is also contrary to a large body of research that concurs in concluding that the number of distractors is a major (inverse) determinant of efficient visual search performance (e.g.,…”
The multi-component model of working memory: explorations in experimental cognitive psychology. (2006, background): “e Fockert JW, Rees G, Frith CD, Lavie N (2001) The role of working”
The effect of cognitive load in emotional attention and trait anxiety: An eye movement study (2012, background): “Models of selective attention such as Load Theory (eg, Lavie, 2005 ) propose that visual demands on attention reduce early resources available to process additional information, extended to include emotional content by others (Bishop et al, 2007; Pessoa et al, 2002).”
Audio-visual integration of emotional cues in song (2008, background): “Although research suggests that manipulations of either attentional or perceptual load can affect the processing of distractors (e.g., Lavie, 2005), emotional evaluations remained stable regardless of whether participants were engaged in a secondary task, or whether the task stimuli were presented…”
Multisensory feature integration in (and out) of the focus of spatial attention (2019, methodology): “According to the Perceptual Load Theory (e.g. Lavie, 1995, 2005, 2010), processing resources are fully used until an individual’s capacity limit is reached.”
Semantic congruency and the Colavita visual dominance effect (2008, background): “…have used simple stimuli (cf. Koppen and Spence 2007a, b, c; Koppen and Spence, submitted), given that the presentation of more complex stimuli should presumably increase the perceptual load of the participants’ task (e.g. Lavie 2005), which would be expected to increase the overall error rate.”
