Zorana's PhD thesis, entitled "Control and Development of Time-based Visual Selection", covered two main topics: i) the strategic use of time-based visual selection - mechanisms that allow us to control when and what we attend to and how these can be used to avoid distraction, and ii) the time-course of the development of those mechanisms from childhood to adulthood. Zorana was nominated by her supervisor, Dr Derrick Watson, who said that efficient selection mechanisms are so central to everyday functioning that Zorana's study is of great importance for understanding behaviour in a vast range of settings.
