Psychometric Testing and Cue Utilization During Cued Visual Search

October 3, 2023 updated by: Lehigh University
The experimenters will examine the relationship between utilization of positive (target cue) and negative (distractor cue) templates during a cued visual search task with performance on a set of measures related to executive functions associated with attentional control: shifting, updating, and inhibition.
