The Effects of Pre-session Access to Competing Stimuli on Motor Stereotypy
… the subsequent effects of pre-session access to competing stimuli on automatically maintained motor stereotypy during discrete trial training. A free-operant competing stimulus assessment identified high preference, low stereotypy items for both participants that classified as matched stimuli and …

Neural Dynamics of Goal-Directed Action Selection: A Multivariate Approach to Evidence Accumulation and Cognitive Control in Response to Competing Stimuli
… capacity to resolve conflict in the presence of competing alternatives. I examine this over the course of three empirical studies incorporating behavioural measures, computational modelling, magneto- and electroencephalography (M/EEG), functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), as well as both …

Neural circuits for solving the cocktail party problem in mouse auditory cortex
… circuits process complex natural sounds amidst competing stimuli from different spatial sources, also known as the "cocktail party effect". A pre-study recorded cortical responses in songbirds and found that neurons are broadly tuned to sound location when only one sound is present; when a …

Voiding Distraction: Simone Weil and the Religio-Ethics of Attention
… or neurology, and something simply threatened by competing stimuli, but it is an ethical issue at base. Under this revision, to be attentive is to empty the self of attachments, expectations, and any self-satisfying consolations that preclude openness, patience, and humility. The resultant ethic …

Types of interference and their resolution in monolingual language production
… object naming or when suppressing alternative competing terms in referential language use. However, little is known about the types of conflict resolution mechanisms underlying the production processes. The aim of this research was to assess the relative contribution of various forms of …
