Perceptual load and enumeration: Distractor interference depends on subitizing capacity.

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2021
Attention is limited, both in processing capacity (leading to phenomena of "inattentional blindness") and in the capacity for selective focus (leading to distraction). Load theory (e.g., Lavie, 1995) accounts for both limitations by proposing that perceptual processing has limited capacity but proceeds automatically and in parallel on all stimuli ...

Processing different kinds of semantic relations in picture-word interference with non-masked and masked distractors

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2014
Spoken production requires lexical selection, guided by the conceptual representation of the to-be-named target. Currently, the question whether lexical selection is subject to competition is hotly debated.

Lessons Learned From a Delayed‐Start Trial of Modafinil for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Freezing of gait (FOG) in people with Parkinson's disease (PwPD) is debilitating and has limited treatments. Modafinil modulates beta/gamma band activity in the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN), like PPN deep brain stimulation. We therefore tested the hypothesis that Modafinil would improve FOG in PwPD.

Neural mechanisms underlying expectation-dependent inhibition of distracting information

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Predictions based on learned statistical regularities in the visual world have been shown to facilitate attention and goal-directed behavior by sharpening the sensory representation of goal-relevant stimuli in advance. Yet, how the brain learns to ignore

On the automaticity of language processing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
People speak and listen to language all the time. Given this high frequency of use, it is often suggested that at least some aspects of language processing are highly overlearned and therefore occur “automatically”.

Flexible Sensor‐Based Human–Machine Interfaces with AI Integration for Medical Robotics

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review explores how flexible sensing technology and artificial intelligence (AI) significantly enhance human–machine interfaces in medical robotics. It highlights key sensing mechanisms, AI‐driven advancements, and applications in prosthetics, exoskeletons, and surgical robotics.

Oculomotor and Inhibitory Control in Dyslexia

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2019
Previous research has suggested that people with dyslexia may have an impairment of inhibitory control. The oculomotor system is vulnerable to interference at various levels of the system, from high level cognitive control to peripheral neural pathways ...

Reduced distractibility in a remote culture. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: In visual processing, there are marked cultural differences in the tendency to adopt either a global or local processing style. A remote culture (the Himba) has recently been reported to have a greater local bias in visual processing than ...

Semantic interference affects speech production by increasing disfluencies, not errors

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2023
Several studies have shown that different types of disfluency occur depending on the language production stage at which people experience difficulties.

A bilingual advantage in controlling language interference during sentence comprehension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This study compared the comprehension of syntactically simple with more complex sentences in Italian–English adult bilinguals and monolingual controls in the presence or absence of sentence-level interference.
