Juan Lupiáñez et al., « A review of attentional capture: On its automaticity and sensitivity to endogenous control », Psicológica, ID : 10670/1.daa538...
It is well known that irrelevant stimuli can control where we attend.However, in the literature about the so-called attentional capturephenomenon, there has been a great deal of discussion about the extent towhich such effects are automatic or rather modulated by endogenous factors.The present article reviews data and theory related to this debate. Althoughboth exogenous and endogenous factors appear to have an influence onattentional allocation, mental sets related to the task at hand seem to be themost influential in modulating attentional capture. As such, althoughattentional capture appears to be automatic "by default", in that it can occurin the absence of a specific mental set, it seems clear that it can beendogenously modulated.
