abstract = {Top-down focused spatial attention can counteract bottom-up
attentional capture of an irrelevant but salient distractor
outside the attentional focus. The present behavioural study
differentiates two alternative concepts accounting for the
absence of attentional capture under top-down focused
attention. In particular, top-down focused attention may
counteract attentional capture by altering salience coding
outside the focus of attention. Alternatively, spatially
focusing on a pre-defined region of potential target
locations may omit the need to search among multiple
salience signals, thereby eliminating the tendency of
unattended stimuli to compete for attentional selection and,
hence, to capture attention. Spatial cues explicitly
indicating a variable number of potential target locations
preceded the additional singleton paradigm to gradually
manipulate the need to search for a target (i.e., to select
a target from an array of distractors) and to determine its
effects on attentional capture. Attentional capture occurred
only when a salient distractor was located at potential
target locations and never occurred when located outside the
attended spotlight. This finding was independent of the
parametrical variations related to the need to search for
the target, which did not modulate attentional capture
either. Accordingly, our data suggest that the presence or
absence of salience-based distraction of unattended stimuli
is not per se affected by the need to select a target from
multiple salience signals.},
