Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This is an example of a feature search because the target (blue T) can be identified by a single feature (color) that is different from the distractors (brown Ts and green Xs). In feature searches, reaction time is typically not influenced by display size because the target feature pops out, allowing for parallel processing of the visual field.
