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.

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.
