Effects of transcranial direct current stimulation over left dorsolateral pFC on the attentional blink depend on individual baseline performance [PDF]
, 2015 Selection mechanisms that dynamically gate only relevant perceptual information for further processing and sustained representation in working memory are critical for goal-directed behavior.

Efficient Attentional Selection Predicts Distractor Devaluation: Event-related Potential Evidence for a Direct Link between Attention and Emotion [PDF]
Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 2007 Abstract Links between attention and emotion were investigated by obtaining electrophysiological measures of attentional selectivity together with behavioral measures of affective evaluation. Participants were asked to rate faces that had just been presented as targets or distractors in a visual search task.

Target–distractor similarity predicts visual search efficiency but only for highly similar features
Attention, Perception, & PsychophysicsA major constraining factor for attentional selection is the similarity between targets and distractors. When similarity is low, target items can be identified quickly and efficiently, while high similarity can incur large costs on processing speed. Models of visual search contrast a fast, efficient parallel stage with a slow serial processing stage ...

An algorithm for automatically choosing distractors for recognition based authentication using minimal image types [PDF]
, 2009 <p>When a user logs on to a recognition based authentication system, he or she is presented with a number of images, one of which is their pass image and the others are distractors.

Working Memory Capacity and Redundant Information Processing Efficiency
Frontiers in Psychology, 2015 Working memory capacity (WMC) is typically measured by the amount of task-relevant information an individual can keep in mind while resisting distraction or interference from task irrelevant information.

On the factors causing processing difficulty of multiple-scene displays [PDF]
, 2016 Multiplex viewing of static or dynamic scenes is an increasing feature of screen media. Most existing multiplex experiments have examined detection across increasing scene numbers, but currently no systematic evaluation of the factors that might produce ...

Neural correlates of learning to attend
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2010 Recent work has shown that training can improve attentional focus. Little is known, however, about how training in attention and multitasking affects the brain. We used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to measure changes in cortical responses

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Molecular engineering of a nonconjugated radical polymer enables a significant enhancement of the glass transition temperature. The amorphous nature and tunability of the polymer, arising from its nonconjugated backbone, facilitates the fabrication of organic memristive devices with an exceptionally high yield (>95%), as well as substantial ...
