The tempos of Performance
(2019-06)Human performance fluctuates over time. Rather than random, the complex time course of variation reflects, among other factors, influences from regular periodic processes operating at multiple time scales. In this review, ... -
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 ... -
Unimodal and bimodal access to sensory working memories by auditory and visual impulses
(2019-11)It is unclear to what extent sensory processing areas are involved in the maintenance of sensory information in working memory (WM). Previous studies have thus far relied on finding neural activity in the corresponding ... -
Visual fixation patterns during economic choice reflect covert valuation processes that emerge with learning
(2019-10)Visual fixations play a vital role in decision making. Recent studies have demonstrated that the longer subjects fixate an option, the more likely they are to choose it. However, the role of evaluating stimuli covertly ... -
When Helping is Risky: Behavioral and Neurobiological Mechanisms of Prosocial Decisions Entailing Risk.
(2020-03)Helping others can entail risks. Doctors that treat infectious patients may risk their own health, intervening in a fight can lead to injury, and organ donations can lead to medical complications. When helping others comes ... -
When Natural Behavior Engages Working Memory
(2020-12)Working memory (WM) enables temporary storage and manipulation of information,1 supporting tasks that require bridging between perception and subsequent behavior. Its properties, such as its capacity, have been thoroughly ... -
Whole-brain white matter organization, intelligence, and educational attainment
(2019-03)General cognitive ability, sometimes referred to as intelligence, is associated with educational attainment throughout childhood. Most studies that have explored the neural correlates of intelligence in childhood focus ...
