Abstract

We consider the framework of attentional processing in light of Gestalt theory. The dichotomy of top-down and bottom-up attention is criticized as an anachronism in light of the interactive character of processing. The Gestalt concept of foreground background organization offers an appropriate contextualization for the notion of attention.
