Orienting is the gateway to attention, the first step in processing
stimulus information. This volume examines these initial stages of
information intake, focusing on the sensory and motivational
mechanisms that determine such phenomena as stimulus selection and
inhibition, habituation, pre-attentive processing, and expectancy.
Psychophysiological methods are emphasized throughout. The
contributors consider analyses based on cardiovascular and
electrodermal changes, reflex reactions, and neural events in the
cortex and subcortex. Stimulated by a conference lauding Frances
Graham -- held before and during a recent meeting of the Society
for Psychophysiological Research, the book presents current theory
and research by an international cadre of outstanding
investigators. A major researcher and theorist in the field of
attention for more than three decades, Dr. Graham contributes an
Afterword to the present volume which is both a consideration of
the work which has gone before, and a new, original theory paper on
preattentive processing and attention.
