Example of how response selection facilitation may contribute to contextual cueing. Here a repeated display may reduce the threshold needed to respond to the target. Imagine a target requires X amount of information before it can be responded to. If the target, however, appears in a habitual location, the quantity of information needed to cross the threshold may be reduced by N amount. In this case the threshold will be crossed sooner, leading to the contextual cueing effect.
