Past work has demonstrated that active suppression of salient distractors is a critical part of visual selection. Evidence for goal-driven suppression includes below-baseline visual encoding at the position of salient distractors ([Gaspelin and Luck, 2018][1]) and neural signals such as the distractor positivity (Pd) that track how many distractors are presented in a given hemifield ([Feldmann-Wüstefeld and Vogel, 2019][2]). One basic question regarding distractor suppression is whether it is inherently spatial or nonspatial in character. Indeed, past work has shown that distractors evoke both spatial ([Theeuwes, 1992][3]) and nonspatial forms of interference ([Folk and Remington, 1998][4]), motivating a direct examination of whether space is integral to goal-driven distractor suppression. Here, we use behavioral and EEG data from adult humans (male and female) to provide clear evidence for a spatial gradient of suppression surrounding salient singleton distractors. Replicating past work, both reaction tim...Apr 7, 2021
