Stimulus Properties: Target Location

The location of the target item in the display will be varied across trials (appear left, right, up, or down)

OTHER

Stimulus Properties: Distractor Presence

A proportion of all trials will contain a task-irrelevant, singleton distractor defined in a non-target dimension (e.g., color target and motion distractor)

OTHER

Stimulus properties: Cue Validity

Varied across trials, the validity of the cue will be determined by the match or mismatch between direction of the visual cue (an arrowhead around the fixation pointing to the right, left, up, or down) and actual target location
