Expertise in radiological screening and satisfaction of search (2011)
Presentation / Conference
Clark, K., Samei, E., Baker, J., & Mitroff, S. R. (2011, November). Expertise in radiological screening and satisfaction of search. Poster presented at Object Perception, Attention, and Memory, Seattle, Washington, United States

Cognitive psychology studies of visual search typically use novice searchers (often undergraduate students). Such studies have provided valuable insight into visual search performance, but how might expert searchers differ in their performance? Radi...

Optimal models of human multiple-target visual search (2011)
Presentation / Conference
Cain, M. S., Vul, E., Clark, K., & Mitroff, S. R. (2011, July). Optimal models of human multiple-target visual search. Paper presented at Cognitive Science Society, Boston, Massachusetts, United States

Unlike laboratory experiments, real-world visual search can contain multiple targets. Searching for an unknown number of targets creates a unique set of challenges for the observer, and often produces serious errors. We propose a Bayesian optimal for...

Interactions between reward, feedback, and timing structures on dual-target search performance (2011)
Presentation / Conference
Clark, K., Cain, M. S., Adcock, R. A., & Mitroff, S. R. (2011, May). Interactions between reward, feedback, and timing structures on dual-target search performance. Poster presented at Vision Sciences Society, Naples, Florida, United States

Individuals who conduct visual searches that can contain more than one target face many challenges. Such multiple-target visual searches can be especially error prone, as identification of one target often makes identification of a second target less...

Motivational influences of monetary reward and performance feedback on dual-target search performance (2011)
Presentation / Conference
Clark, K., Cain, M. S., Adcock, R. A., & Mitroff, S. R. (2011, April). Motivational influences of monetary reward and performance feedback on dual-target search performance. Poster presented at Annual Symposium on Motivation, Lincoln, Nebraska, United States

Optimizing employee performance is of general importance, but it is particularly pertinent for socially critical jobs that are especially error prone. For example, it is vital to understand how visual search performance can be maximized for radiologi...
