Abstract: | Although inhibition of return (IOR) has been examined in a number of experimental circumstances, it is not known whether the number of potential target locations affects the magnitude of the inhibition at a cued location. To investigate this issue, 20 undergraduates were randomly presented with displays of 2, 4, or 6 potential target locations in a typical IOR detection task. The findings indicate that number of target locations did not affect IOR and that RTs at uncued locations varied systematically as a function of the spatial relationship between the cued and uncued location.
