Abstract Automatic attentional capture by a salient distractor can be prevented by spatial attentional control settings (ACSs)(eg, Yantis and Jonides in J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform 16: 121–134, 1990). Earlier, converging evidence for a spatial ACS (Eason et al. 1969) was found in event-related potentials (ERPs). In these studies, the ACS was defined by a single target-relevant location.

Event-related potentials (ERPs) are used extensively to investigate the neural mechanisms of attention control and selection. The commonly applied univariate ERP approach, however, has left important questions inadequately answered. Here, we addressed two questions by applying multivariate pattern classification to multichannel ERPs in two spatial-cueing experiments (N = 56 in total): (1) impact of cueing strategies (instructional vs. probabilistic) and (2) neural and behavioral effects of individual differences. Following the cue onset, the decoding accuracy (cue left vs. cue right) began to rise above chance level earlier and remained higher in instructional cueing (∼80 ms) than in probabilistic cueing (∼160 ms), suggesting that unilateral attention focus leads to earlier and more distinct formation of the attentional set. A similar temporal sequence was also found for target-related processing (cued targets vs. uncued targets), suggesting earlier and stronger attention selection ...

The presence of a salient distractor interferes with visual search. According to the salience-driven selection hypothesis, this interference is because of an initial deployment of attention to the distractor. Three event-related potential (ERP) findings have been regarded as evidence for this hypothesis: (a) salient distractors were found to elicit an ERP component called N2pc, which reflects attentional selection; (b) with target and distractor on opposite sides, a distractor N2pc was reported to precede the target N2pc (N2pc flip); (c) the distractor N2pc on slow-response trials was reported to occur particularly early, suggesting that the fastest shifts of attention were driven by salience. This evidence is equivocal, however, because the ERPs were noisy (b, c) and were averaged across all trials, thereby making it difficult to know whether attention was deployed directly to the target on some trials (a, b). We reevaluated this evidence using a larger sample size to reduce noise and by analyzing ERPs separately for fast- and slow-response trials. On fast-response trials, the distractor elicited a contralateral positivity (PD)—an index of attentional suppression—instead of an N2pc. There was no N2pc flip or early distractor N2pc. As it stands, then, there is no ERP evidence for the salience-driven selection hypothesis.
