REDIRECTING THE SEARCH PROCESS*
Ulric Neisser, Arnold E. Stoper · British Journal of Psychology · 1965
Subjects scanned through lists of words looking for proper names. Some lists contained cue words which made it possible to skip a number of lines. One or two seconds were needed to make such a skip; hence cues for short skips were not used. Interpretation is in terms of a higher‐order process which controls the scanning pattern.
