Description: In our daily lives, attention is shaped by past experiences, guiding us to suppress locations that are likely to contain distractions. While this phenomenon has been studied extensively with static search displays, the real world is dynamic - we are constantly moving our eyes. This study addressed this issue by investigating what happens when we learn to suppress a likely distractor location while making eye movements. Do we suppress the same location in space (spatiotopic), or does the learned suppression persist relative to our eyes (retinotopic)? The current findings provide clear evidence of suppression in retinotopic coordinates only.
