Human Attention Restoration, Flow, and Creativity: A Conceptual Integration [PDF]

Journal of Imaging
In today’s fast paced, attention-demanding society, executive functions and attentional resources are often taxed. Individuals need ways to sustain and restore these resources. We first review the concepts of attention and restoration, as instantiated in

Water and Meadow Views Both Afford Perceived but Not Performance-Based Attention Restoration: Results From Two Experimental Studies [PDF]

Frontiers in Psychology, 2022
Attention Restoration Theory proposes that exposure to natural environments helps to restore attention. For sustained attention—the ongoing application of focus to a task, the effect appears to be modest, and the underlying mechanisms of attention ...

Testing Attention Restoration in a Virtual Reality Driving Simulator [PDF]

Frontiers in Psychology, 2019
Objectives: Attention Restoration Theory (ART) suggests that walking or being in natural settings, as opposed to urban environments, benefits cognitive skills because it is less demanding on attentional resources.

Relationship between PSD of Park Green Space and Attention Restoration in Dense Urban Areas [PDF]

Brain Sciences, 2022
Research shows that stress, a common problem in densely populated cities, can be relieved by exposure to the natural environment. As great significance has been attached to the relationship between the urban environment and public health, this paper aims

Attention Restoration Theory: A systematic review of the attention restoration potential of exposure to natural environments [PDF]

Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, Part B, 2016
Attention Restoration Theory (ART) suggests the ability to concentrate may be restored by exposure to natural environments. Although widely cited, it is unclear as to the quantity of empirical evidence that supports this. A systematic review regarding the impact of exposure to natural environments on attention was conducted.

Pyramid Attention Network for Image Restoration

International Journal of Computer Vision, 2023
AbstractSelf-similarity refers to the image prior widely used in image restoration algorithms that small but similar patterns tend to occur at different locations and scales. However, recent advanced deep convolutional neural network-based methods for image restoration do not take full advantage of self-similarities by relying on self-attention neural ...

Nature’s Broken Path to Restoration. A Critical Look at Attention Restoration Theory [PDF]

Journal of Environmental Psychology, 2018
Over the past three decades, a growing body of environmental psychology research has demonstrated that interacting with natural environments – and especially greenspace – can have beneficial psychological effects on human individuals. One influential and widely-cited theoretical account to explain such effects is Attention Restoration Theory (ART). ART
