“…These are by (1) using reaction times (RTs) for the detecting of probes among distractors (Klein, 1988;Müller & von Mühlenen, 2000;Ogawa, Takeda, & Yagi, 2002;Takeda & Yagi, 2000), (2) using the refixation frequency of eye movements (Gilchrist & Harvey, 2000;Peterson, Kramer, Wang, Irwin, & McCarley, 2001), and (3) using the slope of the search function in a dynamic display (Horowitz & Wolfe, 1998;Kristjánsson, 2000). Studies in which the first method has been used have consistently shown increased RTs for the detecting of probes at the locations of previously attended distractors, suggesting that these distractors are inhibited.…”
