I recently had the opportunity to present at Graduate Education Day in Santa Fe, NM at the capitol building! I was selected by the Dean of the Graduate school to present my research on expertise in visual search.
I was happy to represent NMSU at this event and educate our legislators about all the amazing research we are doing in the lab.
The lab recently returned from the Vision Sciences Society meeting in St. Pete’s Beach, FL. We presented several posters and a mini talk. It was a great time catching up with friends and spending some time on the beach 🙂
Congrats to my fellow lab members and Dr. Hout for all of the VSS presentation acceptances!
I will present research I completed last semester examining pupillary reflexes during categorical search. Here is a list of our upcoming presentations:
Robbins, A., & Hout, M. C.  (2016, to be presented). Typicality effects in categorical visual search investigated using the pupillary reflex. Poster to be presented at the Vision Sciences Society 2016 Meeting in St. Petersburg, Fl (May, 2016).
Lopez, A., Bennett, G., Robbins, A., Godwin, H. J., & Hout, M. C.  (2016, to be presented). Find one fast, or find them all slow: Do collaborative visual searchers search more quickly or more thoroughly? Poster to be presented at the Vision Sciences Society 2016 Meeting in St. Petersburg, Fl (May, 2016).
Madrid, J., Cunningham, C. A., Robbins, A., Godwin, H. J., Wolfe, J. M., & Hout, M. C.  (2016, to be presented). Exploring the nature of mental representations in hybrid visual and memory search. Poster to be presented at the Vision Sciences Society 2016 Meeting in St. Petersburg, Fl (May, 2016).
Hout, M. C., Maxfield, J., Robbins, A., & Zelinsky, G.  (2016, to be presented). Object categorization performance modeled using multidimensional scaling and category-consistent features. Poster to be presented at the Vision Sciences Society 2016 Meeting in St. Petersburg, Fl (May, 2016).
Also, congrats to Jessica Madrid who recently published her first book chapter!!
Madrid, J., Robbins, A., Scarince, C., Godwin, H. J., & Hout, M. C. (2016). Visual spatial attention: What it is, how it works, and what it does for us. To appear in Spatial Attention: Function, Influences and Performance by Nova Science Publications, Hauppauge, NY.
Thanks to you all that came and listened to my talk at OPAM or stopped by our Word Search poster at Psychonomics. I have attached the poster here:
Check out our paper from OPAM HERE.
As usual, Psychonomics was cold but a great time 🙂
Check out our latest article in Visual Cognition. I will be presenting this paper at OPAM this year in Chicago.
So much good news to share from the past few weeks! I am thrilled to be presenting at both the Psychonomic Society Conference and at OPAM this year in Chicago.
At the conference for the Psychonomic Society, I will be presenting a poster titled “Going beyond the ‘visual’ in visual search: Semantic search for related words.”. This project was in collaboration with Michael Hout, Gemma Fitzsimmons, Tammy Meneer, and Hayward Godwin and delves into the role of semantic information during attentional guidance. I’m happy to have the opportunity to present!
I recently received my acceptance to give a talk on our work in categorical search at this year’s OPAM. I’m very excited to share the results!! I’ll be speaking Thursday November 19th, which is just before the kickoff for The Psychonomic Society conference this year in Chicago. My talk is entitled “Categorical templates: Typical category members are found and identified quickly during word-cued search.”
Some more good news, 2 of our outstanding research assistants (Alexis and Garrett) will be presenting a poster highlighting our work examining strategies in collaborative visual search. This is a very cool line of research we are starting in the lab and we can’t wait to share our results!
Lopez, A., Bennett, G., Robbins, A., Godwin, H. J., & Hout, M. C. (to be presented). Four eyes aren’t always better than two: Collaborative categorical multiple-target hybrid search. Poster to be presented at the 23rd annual Object Perception, Attention and Memory conference: Chicago, IL (November, 2015).
And Jessica Madrid, a Masters student in our lab, will be presenting her work in vsual search of familiar vs unfamiliar objects. Way to go J Mad!
Madrid, J., Cunningham, C., Robbins, A., & Hout, M. C. (to be presented). Don’t label me!: Search for familiar, nameable objects vs. search for unfamiliar, novel objects. Poster to be presented at the 23rd annual Object Perception, Attention and Memory conference: Chicago, IL (November, 2015).
Great job team!!
