Discussion:
The differences between top-down/bottom-up and direct/constructivist approaches to perception
1) What are the differences between top-down/bottom-up and between direct/constructivist approaches to perception?
2) Compare and contrast capacity vs. bottleneck models of attention.
3) Describe which factors may make perception (e.g., visual search task) and attention (e.g., divided attention) easier/harder. What factors related to the individual, task, and environment?
