Does visual working memory represent the predicted locations of future target objects? An event-related brain potential study (2014)
Journal Article
Grubert, A., & Eimer, M. (2015). Does visual working memory represent the predicted locations of future target objects? An event-related brain potential study. Brain Research, 1626, 258-266. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.brainres.2014.10.011

During the maintenance of task-relevant objects in visual working memory, the contralateral delay activity (CDA) is elicited over the hemisphere opposite to the visual field where these objects are presented. The presence of this lateralised CDA comp... Read More about Does visual working memory represent the predicted locations of future target objects? An event-related brain potential study.

The gradual emergence of spatially selective target processing in visual search: From feature-specific to object-based attentional control (2014)
Journal Article
Eimer, M., & Grubert, A. (2014). The gradual emergence of spatially selective target processing in visual search: From feature-specific to object-based attentional control. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 40(5), 1819-1831. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0037387

To dissociate feature-based and object-based stages in the control of spatial attention during visual search, we employed the N2pc component as an electrophysiological marker of attentional object selection. Participants searched for a target object...

Distinct neural networks for target feature versus dimension changes in visual search, as revealed by EEG and fMRI (2014)
Journal Article
Becker, S., Grubert, A., & Dux, P. (2014). Distinct neural networks for target feature versus dimension changes in visual search, as revealed by EEG and fMRI. NeuroImage, 102(Part 2), 798-808. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2014.08.058

In visual search, responses are slowed, from one trial to the next, both when the target dimension changes (e.g., from a color target to a size target) and when the target feature changes (e.g., from a red target to a green target) relative to being...

Electrophysiological evidence for a sensory recruitment model of somatosensory working memory (2014)
Journal Article
Katus, T., Grubert, A., & Eimer, M. (2015). Electrophysiological evidence for a sensory recruitment model of somatosensory working memory. Cerebral Cortex, 25(12), 4697-4703. https://doi.org/10.1093/cercor/bhu153

Sensory recruitment models of working memory assume that information storage is mediated by the same cortical areas that are responsible for the perceptual processing of sensory signals. To test this assumption, we measured somatosensory event-relate... Read More about Electrophysiological evidence for a sensory recruitment model of somatosensory working memory.

From features to dimensions: cognitive and motor development in pop-out search in children and young adults (2014)
Journal Article
Grubert, A., Indino, M., & Krummenacher, J. (2014). From features to dimensions: cognitive and motor development in pop-out search in children and young adults. Frontiers in Psychology, 5, Article 519. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2014.00519

In an experiment involving a total of 124 participants, divided into eight age groups (6-, 8-, 10-, 12-, 14-, 16-, 18-, and 20-year-olds) the development of the processing components underlying visual search for pop-out targets was tracked. Participa... Read More about From features to dimensions: cognitive and motor development in pop-out search in children and young adults.

Salience-based integration of redundant signals in visual pop-out search: evidence from behavioral and electrophysiological measures (2014)
Journal Article
Krummenacher, J., Grubert, A., Töllner, T., & Müller, H. (2014). Salience-based integration of redundant signals in visual pop-out search: evidence from behavioral and electrophysiological measures. Journal of Vision, 14(3), Article 26. https://doi.org/10.1167/14.3.26

Behavioral and electrophysiological evidence is presented suggesting that, in visual search for feature singleton targets, multidimensional signals are integrated at a preselective stage of processing. Observers searched for a target that was consist...

Spatial attention can be allocated rapidly and in parallel to new visual objects (2014)
Journal Article
Eimer, M., & Grubert, A. (2014). Spatial attention can be allocated rapidly and in parallel to new visual objects. Current Biology, 24(2), 193-198. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2013.12.001

In real-life visual environments, where multiple objects compete for processing, new objects that require immediate attention often appear when attention is already focused elsewhere. The question of whether spatial attention can be directed independ... Read More about Spatial attention can be allocated rapidly and in parallel to new visual objects.
