Contextual exploration task (A) A scene can be categorised in two ways, either by its colour or its shape. The categories are shown on the left and on top when the rule (context) is to categorise the scene in terms of its colour and shape, respectively. (B) The sequence of observations illustrates exploration of an exemplar scene. In the beginning, each quadrant is greyed out (t = 1). Attending to (i.e. looking at) each quadrant reveals its content. In this case, the order of explored locations is top left (t = 2), bottom left (t = 3) and top right quadrants (t = 4).
