“…It is widely agreed that when attention shifts towards the location of a prioritized object, a burst of transient enhancement speeds the extraction of information at that location and gates its consolidation into working memory (e.g., Goldfarb & Treisman, 2010;Wolfe, 2007), a process often referred to as "attentional engagement" (e.g., Folk, Ester & Troemel, 2009;Nieuwenstein, Chun, van der Lubbe & Hooge, 2005;Posner & Petersen, 1990) 2 . Accordingly, several studies showed that attentional engagement follows attentional capture (e.g., Carmel & Lamy, 2014;Folk & Remington, 2006;Theeuwes, Atchley & Kramer, 2000;Zivony & Lamy, 2016a). Attentional engagement was typically assessed by measuring response compatibility effects.…”
