Key Points
⢠Attention and eye movements are reciprocally linked; preparing saccades moves attention and moving attention primes saccades. This is evidence for the influential premotor theory of attention, which states that attentional orienting is contingent on the covert preparation of eye movements.
⢠The link between action and attention goes beyond eye movements. Performing, or intending to perform, a manual action affects selection of available information. Perceptual dimensions that are relevant for successful completion of the action tend to be favored, and perceptual features that match the features of the current action are selected more efficiently. Perceptual anticipation that accompanies an action also influences the way concurrent perceptual events are prioritized.
⢠Attentional processes take not only oneâs own actions into account but also the actions and intentions of our co-actors. In other words, selection of information takes place from a representation of environment that can include other people.
