Inhibition-of-return is thought to be a visual search phenomenon characterized by delayed responses to targets presented at recently cued or recently fixated locations. We studied this inhibition effect following the simultaneous presentation of multiple location cues. The results indicated that response inhibition can be associated with as many as four locations at the same time. This suggests that a purely oculomotor account of inhibition-of-return is oversimplified. In short, although oculomotor processes appear to play a role in inhibition-of-return they may not tell the whole story about how it occurs because we can only program and execute eye movements to one location at a time.
返回抑制被认为是一种视觉搜索现象，其特征是对在最近提示或最近注视的位置呈现的目标反应延迟。我们研究了多个位置提示同时呈现后的这种抑制效应。结果表明，反应抑制可以同时与多达四个位置相关联。这表明，对返回抑制仅从眼动角度进行解释过于简单化。简而言之，虽然眼动过程似乎在返回抑制中起作用，但它们可能无法完全解释其发生机制，因为我们一次只能将眼球运动编程并执行到一个位置。
