3. Some models suggest that attentional selection is neural entrainment.
My favored models suggest that attentional selection is a transient modulation that, by amplifying a specific signal, resolves perceptual competition.
Is there another way to look at this?
Question to any attention researchers following this account:
Do you know of ANY theory/model of visual attention that defines or explains what is "attentional selection"?
Anything that comes to mind will do.
Extra points if they're detailing a mechanism that underlies it.
2. According to many others, attentional selection *is* a process. Though most won't commit to what exactly this process is.
So second: if it's a process, what is it?
It seems to me that the shared common denominator of (few) theories that DO commit to a definition is perceptual/neural modulation
1.Here's where I'm going with this
It seems to me that there are several ways of viewing attentional selection
First: is it a cognitive process?
According to some, it's not. It's merely a result of processes. Therefore, science cannot study attentional selection, only its antecedents/consequences.
🚨 Excited to share our new paper in JEP: General w/ Tamar Alkalai & Dominique Lamy! 🚨
We examined sequential effects from the visual search, task-switching, and action-control literatures within a single paradigm.
We report two key findings: 🧵 1/4
I've been asked to publish this statement from some of the families affected by NHS England's decision in Brighton.
I have signed the fatal motion on the code of practice.
The answers to the questions I raised below - and to those from other committee members - fell far short of anything workable, just or fair.
Why is the universities crisis being ignored?

I am looking for a postdoctoral researcher to join my lab at Sabancı University in Istanbul for a 2-year TÜBİTAK-funded position, with possible extension.
Interested candidates can email me with a CV and a brief note about their research interests.
