Researchers have often relied on metaphors to explain how attention works. The metaphor of attention as visual glue was intended to explain which of the following experimental results? 1. When the experimenter asked a passerby for directions then switched places with someone carrying a door, the unsuspecting passerby continued giving direction. 2. When shadowing by physical features such as whether the speaker is male or female, responses to a target light were faster than when shadowing by the meaning of the message. 3. After shadowing one message, listeners can typically recall none of the unattended message. 4. In visual search for a target with a unique conjunction of features but no unique features, response tiimes increase steeply with the number of distractors.
