Reduced distractor interference during vagus nerve stimulation

International Journal of Psychophysiology, 2018
Suppressing irrelevant information in decision making is an essential everyday skill. We studied whether this ability could be improved in epileptic patients during vagus nerve stimulation (VNS). VNS is known to increase norepinephrine (NE) in the brain.

Interference from Distractors in Reach-to-grasp Movements

The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology Section A, 2000
Descriptions of interference effects from non-relevant stimuli are extensive in visual target detection and identification paradigms. To explore the influence of features of non-relevant objects on reach-to-grasp movements, we instructed healthy normal controls to reach for and pick up a cylinder (target) placed midsagittally 30 cm from the starting ...

Reward-based distractor interference: associative learning and interference stage

2021
This thesis consists of five main chapters including three independent studies, focusing on reward-based distractor interference and reward-association. In particular, the thesis addresses at which attentional processing stages the reward-based distractor interference takes place, as well as whether and how the reward association is learned on ...

Priming effects from phonologically related distractors in picture–word interference

The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology A, 2001
In the cross-modal picture-word interference task, distractors phonologically related to a to-benamed picture facilitate the naming response as compared to unrelated distractors. Our experiment shows that this phonological priming effect can be obtained with as early an SOA as-300 ms. The experiment also demonstrates that this priming effect cannot be

Age-related differences in distractor interference on line bisection

Experimental Brain Research, 2014
Using a bisection paradigm, we investigated age-related differences in susceptibility to distractor interference. Older and younger participants were asked to bisect a horizontal line flanked by a pair of distractors, placed in either left or right hemispace.

Feature‐Based Statistical Learning Modulates Distractor Interference, Not Distractor Rarity

Psychophysiology
ABSTRACT Interference from distractors can be reduced when they appear with frequently occurring features, suggesting that statistical learning attenuates distractor interference. Previous research on spatial statistical learning has shown that reduced interference may reflect both suppression of high‐probability ...

Distractor interference in selective reaching

Journal of Human Movement Studies, 2006
This study examined the effects of visual distractors on reaching performance in 7, 9 and 13 year-old children. The task was to reach for a green target appearing either with or without a red distractor stimulus on a computer screen. Results showed that the presence of a distractor lengthened movement times in all age groups, but, importantly, this ...
