Dynamic modulation of the perceptual load on microsaccades during a selective spatial attention task

Abstract Selective spatial attention enhances task performance at restricted regions within the visual field. The magnitude of this effect depends on the level of attentional load, which determines the efficiency of distractor rejection. Mechanisms of attentional load include perceptual selection an...
