    "abstract": "Information in the visual environment is largely accessed\nthrough a series of fixations punctuated by saccades. Changes\nin fixation patterns in response to learning are well\ndocumented in studies of categorization, but the properties of\nthe saccades that precede them and the role of visual salience\nin effecting eye movements remains poorly understood. This\neye tracking study examines oculomotor changes in a\ncategorization task with salient distractors. The design\nexamines high-level, goal-directed attention that serves the\npurpose of learning, and making decisions based on that\nlearned knowledge in the presence of salient distractors. We\nfind that salient distractors draw fixation durations and\nsaccade velocities that display similar properties to eye\nmovements directed to task relevant items, challenging\nexisting accounts that salience draws rapid saccades.",
