Experiment 3: Mixed vs Blocked; Dashboard Paradigm
Sponsor: Brigham and Women's Hospital
Summary
The goal is to look for qualitative differences in visual search behavior when one search is performed many times in a row compared to when multiple search tasks are intermixed. Four search tasks are tested. The target is the same in every task but the types of distractors change from task to task. In this version, observers get some degree of choice in what they are searching.
