Attentional Uncertainty in the Stroop Priming Task
… evidence that structures in the anterior attentional system (i.e. dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and anterior cingulate) are susceptible to normal aging processes, whereas structural changes in the posterior attentional system are minimal. Using the Stroop priming task, we investigated …

Image and Evidence: The Study of Attention through the Combined Lenses of Neuroscience and Art
… of artworks that exploit the constraints of the attentional system. To advance the central argument that art offers a training ground for the attentional system, a wide range of contemporary art was analysed in light of specific tasks invoked. The kinds of cognitive tasks these works initiate …

Information processing in a midbrain visual pathway
… is motion sensitive and is thought as part of attentional system. We determined the physiological properties of individual neurons as well as their synaptic connections with intracellular recordings. We reproduced the center-surround receptive field structure of tectal neurons in a dynamical …

"Object Based Attention in Visual Word Processing"
… are treated like visual objects by the human attentional system. Previous research has shown an attentional phenomenon that is associated specifically with objects: this is known as “object based attention” (e.g. Egly, Driver & Rafal, 1994). This is where drawing a participant’s attention …

Oceanic languages: A comparative investigation of pre-clausal constructions
… Turner 1996, 1998, 2002, 2003) and the Greater Attentional System (Oakley 2004, 2009), as well as the typology of conceptual blends proposed by Brandt (2013:415–422). Accordingly, it is argued that PRE constructions are expressions of a schematic intraspace blend [PRE,ASC], the function of which …

Bilingualism and cognitive development: a study on the acquisition of number skills
… gains concern a earlier maturation of the attentional system in childhood and its later decline in adulthood. Bilinguals have been shown to be advantaged , compared to their monolingual peers in tasks requiring control of attention: they are more accurate in judging the grammaticality of …

Hypnotizability and Corpus Callosum Morphology
… & Gruzelier, 1992) proposing a more effective attentional system of inhibitory processes in highs than lows. Furthermore, the data suggest that the more effective systems of attentional and inhibitory processes enhanced neural processing speed, and interhemispheric transfer times seen in highs …

Orienting Of Visual-spatial Attention With Augmented Reality: Effects Of Spatial And Non-spatial Multi-modal Cues
… The results showed significant benefits of attentional cuing on visual search task performance as revealed by benefits in reaction time and accuracy from the presence of the haptic cues and auditory cues when displayed alone and the combination of the visual and haptic cues together. …
