Attention in Vision is an important work which aims to identify,
address and solve some major problems and issues in the psychology
of visual perception, attention and intentional control. The
central aim is to investigate how people use their visual
perception in the performance of tasks and to explore how the
intentional control of action is achieved. Through an extensive
review of the philosophy of psychology, the history of ideas and
theories of intentional control, and an analysis of various tasks,
a new theory is developed which argues that there is an important
difference between report tasks and act tasks. The first section of
the book introduces the issues of visual perception in a historical
context and outlines van der Heijden's theory. The theory is
developed in the second and third sections by analysing the
findings from some of the main experimental paradigms of cognitive
psychology and applying the theory to act tasks. Finally, the
epilogue skilfully draws together the theory into an explanation of
different historical and theoretical perspectives in psychology.
This book will be invaluable to researchers and high-level
undergraduates in the field of visual perception and attention.
