Publisher: British Psychological Society

Abstract:

We discuss Humphreys' article in the context of two challenges that exist in regards to future research on the link between action and attention: (1) determining the cognitive and neural mechanisms responsible for an action–attention link and (2) demonstrating that the action–attention links observed in the laboratory reflect the same links between action and attention observed in the complexities of everyday life.
