The results suggest a dynamic attention mechanism that allocates greater resources to the attended and related semantic categories at the expense of unattended ones. }, year = {2013}, journal = {Trends Cogn Sci}, volume = {17}, pages = {368-70}, month = {08/2013}, issn = {1879-307X}, doi = {10.1016/j.tics.2013.05.006}, language = {eng}, }
