Distinguishing influences of overt and covert attention in anticipatory attentional target tracking.

abstract：:Perceptual learning involves modification of cortical processes so that transfer to new task variants depends on neuronal representation overlap. Neuron selectivity varies with cortical level, so that the degree of transfer should depend on training-induced modification level. We ask how different can stimuli be, how ...
