On the brink: The demise of the item in visual search moves closer

Research output: Contribution to Journal › Article › Academic › peer-review

Abstract

We proposed to abandon the item as conceptual unit in visual search and adopt a fixation-based framework instead. We treat various themes raised by our commentators, including the nature of the Functional Visual Field and existing similar ideas, alongside the importance of items, covert attention, and top-down/contextual influences. We reflect on the current state of, and future directions for, visual search.
