1. Detecting conjunctions of color and form: Reassessing the serial search hypothesis
2. Authors of reviews for Current Directions are asked to keep references to a minimum. The work described here builds on and is related to a large body of work from other labs Interested readers should look at the bibliographies of the publications cited here for a more complete guide to this literature. Description of our work on guided search for conjunctions and the original formulation of the guided search model are found in J.M. Wolfe, K.R Cave, and S.L. Franzel, Guided search: An alternative to the feature integration model for visual search, Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 15, 419-433 (1989) Interested readers should certainly look al H.E. Egeth, R.A Virzi, and H. Garbart, Searching for conjunctively defined targets, Journal of Eperimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 10, 32-39 (1984), as well as Anne Treisman's work. One of her recent articles on this topic is A. Treisman and S. Sato, Conjunction search revisited, Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 16, 459-478 (1990).
3. A list, complete at the time it was created, can be found in A. Treisman, Properties, parts, and objects, in Handbook of Human Perception and Performance, K.R. Boff, L. Kaufmann, and J.P. Thomas, Eds. (Wiley, New York, 1986). Sec also J.T. Enns and R.A Rensink, Preattentive recovery of three-dimensional orientation from line drawings, Psychological Review, 98, 335-351 (1991).

5. The orientation tuning of a cell is a measure of the range of orientations to which that cell will respond with at least some fraction (often 50%) of its maximum firing rate. For a discussion, see L.A. Olzak and |.P. Thomas, Seeing spatial patterns, in Handbook ol Perception and Human Performance, K.R Boff, L. Kaufmann, and J.P. Thomas, Eds. (Wiley, New York, 1986).
