Abstract
Jonides (1980, p. 111) suggested a model to account for shifts of spatial attention in visual search tasks with less than 100% cue validity. This two-stage probability matching model was subsequently tested by Jonides (1983). Reaction time distribution characteristics indeed provided some support for the model. In the present paper the relevant data presented in Jonides (1980, 1981, 1983) are further analysed. The results of this analysis strongly support the probability matching hypothesis. Probability matching is apparently a very important strategic characteristic of visual spatial attention that deserves much more study.
Jonides (1980, p. 111)提出了一个模型来解释提示效度低于100%的视觉搜索任务中空间注意力的转移。随后,Jonides(1983)对这一两阶段概率匹配模型进行了验证。反应时间分布特征确实为模型提供了一定的支持。本文进一步分析了Jonides(1980,1981,1983)的相关数据。分析结果有力地支持了概率匹配假说。概率匹配显然是一种非常重要的视觉空间注意策略特征,值得进一步研究。
