The ubiquity of selective attention in the processing of feedback during category learning.

Feedback is essential for many kinds of learning, but the cognitive processes involved in learning from feedback are unclear. Models of category learning incorporate selective attention to stimulus features while generating a response, but during the feedback phase of an experiment, it is assumed that participants receive complete information about stimulus features as well as the correct category. The present work looks at eye tracking data from six category learning datasets covering a variety of category complexities and types.

Digit eyes: Learning-related changes in information access in a computer game parallel those of oculomotor attention in laboratory studies.

Active sensing theory is founded upon the dynamic relationship between information sampling and an observer's evolving goals. Oculomotor activity is a well studied method of sampling; a mouse or a keyboard can also be used to access information past the current screen. We examine information access patterns of StarCraft 2 players at multiple skill levels.
