The phrase "attentive process" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to describe a method or approach that requires careful attention and focus, often in contexts related to learning, observation, or analysis.
Example: "The attentive process of observing the subject allowed the researchers to gather valuable data for their study."
Alternatives: "careful procedure" or "focused method".
Third, Cowan (1988) assumes that "perceptual processing occurs independently of attentive processes," which is consistent with the occurrence of preattentive processing postulated in the current model.
This should be contrasted with absences of conventional attentive processes (inattentiveness) that would normally bring the searchlight, the focus of selective processing to stimulus identification.
Vision often dominates audition when attentive processes are involved (e.g., the ventriloquist effect), yet little is known about the relative potential of the two modalities to initiate a "break through of the unattended".
It also provides evidence of whether a timed behaviour is influenced by other factors (such as sensorimotor transmission or attentive processes) in addition to actual duration [24].
In fact, even if cognitive factors (such as attentive processes or sensorimotor transmission) were equated in the two tasks, as substantiated by the observation that the non-temporal source of variance was negligible in both tasks, our tasks differed in two crucial aspects that might have influenced time-dependent sources of variability.
Some authors have specifically implicated rearing activity in attentive processes underlying gathering of contextual information in novel situations [ 19].
Crossmodal attenuations can be a filter or a gating mechanism controlled by attentive processes, resulting in the same effect as adding noise to a sensory input.
Although some theories of crowding suggest that it may arise from poor resolution of attention (Intriligator and Cavanagh, 2001) or unfocussed higher-order spatial attention (Strasburger, 2005), crowding tends to be considered a pre-attentive process related to the interaction between simple visual features.
Collectively, the data suggested that hippocampal Tat injections in neonatal rats produced alterations in the pre-attentive process of sensorimotor gating, as indexed by PPI.
We predicted that if subitizing is a pre-attentive process, it should not be affected by dual versus single task manipulations and, more importantly, subitizing should not be affected by attentional load.
