The use of dual observation in the challenging environment of an operating theatre, with multiple demands on observer attention is a deliberate choice and is integral to this method, since we have noted (and confirmed here) that one observer identifies only between 40%and75%5% of total glitch events.
Finally, the visual balance rule is also used for analyzing if the photo elements are well balanced, i.e., are placed in a photo in a way that observer attention is equally divided by the photo elements [7, 87, 176].
The forward shift can be accounted for by a combination of the attentional attraction effect and a tendency for observers' attention to be dragged forward in the direction of the visual motion.
Conscious that their breasts will be the focus of observers' attention, Femen protesters write their messages of protest directly on their torsos.
Given that the human face is known to capture observers' attention, the question addressed in this study is whether seeing the model's face in the video would help or hinder learning.
To assess the effects of transient attention we compared performance with a peripheral cue, which appeared adjacent to the target location, to that with either a central-neutral cue, which appeared either in the center of the display, or a distributed-neutral cue, which was designed to spread observers' attention across the possible target locations.
Rabbits have prominent eyes, which may simply draw the observers' attention to the eyes and face.
Social learning about food habits may also be prevented if the observers' attention is distracted by the reward made available by the model.
The coding procedure focuses observers' attention on seven aspects of adult and infant behaviour, some of which assess emotion (facial expression, vocal expression, position and body contact, expression of affection) and others "cognition", i.e., temporal order and interpersonal contingency (pacing of turns, control of the activity and developmental appropriateness of the activity).
The imitation of another individual's action requires observer's attention toward a sequence of body-movements, while an initial reproduction of movements may derive from one's attention to a local motion.
Hoggart had come to the Observer's attention some years earlier, recommended by the paper's Ireland correspondent, Mary Holland, who was impressed by his coverage of the Troubles.
