Limited attention: the constraint underlying search image 总被引:4,自引:2,他引:2
Recent models of predator search behavior integrate proximate
neurobiological constraints with ultimate economic considerations.These models are based on two assumptions, which we have criticallyexamined in experiments with blue jays searching for artificialprey images presented on a computer monitor. We found, first,that when jays had to switch between searching for two distinctprey types, they showed no reduction in detection rates comparedto no-switching to no-switching conditions, and second, that
when jays divided attention between searching for two prey typesat the same time, they had lower detection rates than whenthey focused attention on one prey type at a time. Our resultssuggest that limited attention strongly affects predator searchpatterns and diet choice, including the ubiquitous tendencyto form search images. 相似文献

Limited attention may constrain animal behavior in situationsin which the rate of relevant information exceeds the thresholdprocessing capacity of the brain. In the present study, we examinewhy attention is limited by quantifying how attention affectsthe ubiquitous problem of balancing foraging and antipredatoractivity. We analyze how a given attentional capacity affectsfeeding requirements, the optimal attentional focus during predatorscanning, and the probability of detecting predators. Our modelindicates that because of the complex interplay between thecosts and benefits associated with a given attentional capacity,limited attention can be an optimal strategy, which allows effectiveand economical search for cryptic objects. 相似文献
