But peripheral vision, when it becomes salient, tends to automatically cause eye movement leading to foveal vision of the salient stimulus, rather than to introspective awareness of the distinctive qualities and deficiencies of peripheral vision, of which many of us remain unaware.
Many English-language teachers have been eager to apply corpus findings in the classroom to zero in on salient chunks rather than individual vocabulary words.
However, this was rarely the case (for instance we took care to select distractors with salient objects rather than with uniform landscapes) and the subjects actually reported that they were guessing for 60% of the low-pass filtered pairs, a result that argues strongly that our image set was particularly biased in favour of difficult image pairs.
We are aware that the term orienting has been used in many contexts and use it here to indicate the complex arousal response to motivationally salient events rather than orienting attention in space or time.
The weight added to the link from salient is 1.0 rather than 0.05. .
Consistent with the idea that an observer can learn an alternative strategy, it was expected that the option to detect a salient singleton [10], rather than attend to the target-defining feature of orientation, would result in attentional capture by a singleton, such as the large but irrelevant feature that appeared in the display.
Third, negative reward prediction errors are motivationally very salient but depress rather than activate dopamine neurons, including those activated by air puffs [ 36,37].
Pleasure seems, similarly, often to attach attention to salient stimuli and activities rather than to itself, compatibly with what philosophers seeking to explain pleasure's ability to motivate desire ultimately directed toward other objects have proposed (e.g., Schlick 1930/1939, Ch. II, §§4-10, pp. 36-55).
Studies of financial incentives for behaviour change have found that the most effective incentive strategies for changing health behaviour include provision of salient short-term incentives rather than only long-term benefits, and framing of the incentives in terms of 'loss aversion', which means the potential to lose future benefits.
Finally, the new program attempts to make the rewards more timely (and thus more salient) by disbursing payments monthly, rather than every 2 months.
