Can Rhesus Monkey Learn Executive Attention? [PDF]
Behavioral Sciences, 2016 A growing body of data indicates that, compared to humans, rhesus monkeys perform poorly on tasks that assess executive attention, or voluntary control over selection for processing, particularly under circumstances in which attention is attracted ...

Effects of executive attention on sentence processing in aphasia. [PDF]
Aphasiology, 2020 In the recent years there has been increasing interest in the effects of attentional control on syntactic comprehension, as measured in garden path sentence resolution. Persons with aphasia (PWA) experience greater penalties in garden path sentences compared to language-unimpaired adults but the origin of this deficit remains a controversial issue. One

Symbiosis of Executive and Selective Attention in Working Memory [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 The notion of working memory was introduced to account for the usage of short-term memory resources by other cognitive tasks such as reasoning, mental arithmetic, language comprehension, and many others.

Educating executive attention [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2005 Researchers in the newly emerging field of developmental cognitive neuroscience seek to understand how postnatal brain development relates to changes in perceptual, cognitive, and social abilities in infants and children (1). One of the areas of cognitive development that has benefited most from a developmental cognitive neuroscience approach is ...

Executive Attention and Metacognitive Regulation [PDF]
Consciousness and Cognition, 2000 Metacognition refers to any knowledge or cognitive process that monitors or controls cognition. We highlight similarities between metacognitive and executive control functions, and ask how these processes might be implemented in the human brain. A review of brain imaging studies reveals a circuitry of attentional networks involved in these control ...

Synaptogenesis and heritable aspects of executive attention [PDF]
Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities Research Reviews, 2003 AbstractIn humans, changes in brain structure and function can be measured non‐invasively during postnatal development. In animals, advanced optical imaging measures can track the formation of synapses during learning and behavior. With the recent progress in these technologies, it is appropriate to begin to assess how the physiological processes of ...
