Unresolved issues in distractor suppression: Proactive and reactive mechanisms, implicit learning, and naturalistic distraction

We acknowledge the empirical and theoretical advancements described within Luck et al. and commend the integration of viewpoints on the debate over attentional capture by salient distractors. Our commentary seeks to build on the conversation by drawing attention to open questions that remain about how proactive and reactive mechanisms might operate, the mechanisms of implicit learning, and how attentional capture might occur within the context of naturalistic behaviors.
