    "title": "Extraction of Event Roles From Visual Scenes is Rapid, Automatic,\nand Interacts with Higher-Level Visual Processing",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "A crucial component of event recognition is understanding the\nroles that people and objects take: did the boy hit the girl, or\ndid the girl hit the boy? We often make these categorizations\nfrom visual input, but even when our attention is otherwise\noccupied, do we automatically analyze the world in terms of\nevent structure? In two experiments, participants made speeded\ngender judgments for a continuous sequence of male-female\ninteraction scenes. Even though gender was orthogonal to\nevent roles (whether the Agent was male or Female, or vice-\nversa), a switching cost was observed when the target\ncharacter’s role reversed from trial to trial, regardless of\nwhether the actors, events, or side of the target character\ndiffered. Crucially, this effect held even when nothing in the\ntask required attention to the relationship between actors. Our\nresults suggest that extraction of event structure in visual\nscenes is a rapid and automatic process.",
