The pop-out effect is a visual attention process where salient stimuli automatically capture attention without the need for active search or effortful attention. This process does not show age-related declines and remains intact even in older adults. On the other hand, the other options (conjunction search, orienting reflex, and attentional blink) all involve more effortful and controlled attention processes that have been found to decline with age.
