Facilitation by Irrelevant Distractors Under High Perceptual Load: Suppression or Controlled Attentional Capture?

This project is the repository for all data and scripts used for the manuscript entitled: "Facilitation by Irrelevant Distractors Under High Perceptual Load: Suppression or Controlled Attentional Capture?".

Project Structure

The project is organized into the following main sections:

• Input: Where the raw data are stored.
• Output: Where all the formatted data from load_data.R and the plots generated from analysis_script.R within the scripts folder.
• Scripts: Includes scripts used to load and preprocess data, and execute the analysis.

Scripts Folder Structure

The scripts folder is straightforward:

• process_lit_search.R: Used to process search results from WOS and SCOPUS.
• analysis_script.R: The script used in all the analysis presented in the manuscript.

All the above .R files implicitly call source(...) to run load_data.R and functions.R. In the former, data are loaded and prepossessed; in the latter, helper functions are loaded into the workspace.
