Abstract

With great pleasure I studied the commentaries of my esteemed colleagues to my opinion paper “The Attentional Capture Debate: When Can We avoid Salient Distractors and When Not?” (Theeuwes, 2023). I thought the comments were to-the-point and provocative and I believe that these kinds of exchanges will help the field to move forward in this debate. I discuss the most pressing concerns in separate sections where I have grouped commonly raised issues.
