Abstract

A reduced version of the Simultaneous Type Serial Token Model is presented. This model embraces two theories of temporal attention: Chun and Potter's two-stage theory and Kanwisher's types-tokens theory. We explain the proposed model and show how it reproduces key data from the Attentional Blink phenomenon. In addition, we verify experimentally predictions arising from the model.
