Be there on time: Spatial-temporal regularities guide young children’s attention in dynamic environments
(2020-12)It is believed that children have difficulties in guiding attention while facing distraction. However, developmental accounts of spatial attention rely on traditional search designs using static displays. ... -
Dynamic sustained attention markers differentiate atypical development: The case of Williams syndrome and Down's syndrome
(2019-07)Impaired sustained attention is considered an important factor in determining poor functional outcomes across multiple cognitive and behavioural disorders. Sustained attention is compromised for both children with ... -
Modulation of the pupillary response by the content of visual working memory
(2019-09)Studies of selective attention during perception have revealed modulation of the pupillary response according to the brightness of task-relevant (attended) vs. -irrelevant (unattended) stimuli within a visual display. ... -
Right Lateralized Brain Reserve Offsets Age-Related Deficits in Ignoring Distraction
(2020-09)Age-related deterioration of attention decreases the ability to stay focused on the task at hand due to less efficient selection of relevant information and increased distractibility in the face of irrelevant, but salient ... -
Subclinical anxiety and depression are associated with deficits in attentional target facilitation, not distractor inhibition
(2019-06)Mood and anxiety disorders are associated with deficits in attentional control involving emotive and non-emotive stimuli. Current theories focus on impaired attentional inhibition of distracting stimuli in producing these ... -
Symptom Dynamics and Attention in Depression: Fatigue and Low Positive Affect are Associated With Reduced Orienting Efficiency
(2022-02)Depression is a heterogeneous mental disorder involving a complex interplay between potential etiological and maintenance factors. The current study examined how depression heterogeneity is related to attentional ... -
Toward a neurobiology of internal selective attention
(2021-07)A recent study in non-human primates (NHPs) by Panichello and Buschman brings the investigation of selective attention within visual working memory to the systems and cellular neuroscience levels. We reflect on this ...
