Abstract

This EEG study investigates the neural substrates of history-mediated attentional priority using a task inducing statistical learning of target distributions. A 'pinging' technique with multivariate pattern analyses visualizes the latent attentional priority map during the intertrial period. The findings offer a method for visualizing this map and shed light on how past experiences influence future behavior.
