Mechanisms of spatial contextual cueing in younger and older adults
Psychophysiology, Volume 60, Issue 11, November 2023., 2023 Abstract The contextual cueing effect is the phenomenon observed when response time (RT) becomes faster in visual search in repeated context compared with a new one. In the present study, we explored whether the mechanisms involved in the effect are age dependent.

Separable mechanisms underlying global feature-based attention [PDF]
, 2012 Feature-based attention is known to operate in a spatially global manner, in that the selection of attended features is not bound to the spatial focus of attention.

Rapid category selectivity for animals versus man-made objects: An N2pc study
International Journal of Psychophysiology, 2022 Visual recognition occurs rapidly at multiple categorization levels, including the superordinate level (e.g., animal), basic level (e.g., cat), or exemplar level (e.g., my cat). Visual search for animals is faster than for man-made objects, even when the images from those categories have comparable gist statistics (i.e., low- or mid-level visual ...

Estimating statistical power for ERP studies using the auditory N1, Tb, and P2 components
Psychophysiology, Volume 60, Issue 11, November 2023., 2023 Abstract The N1, Tb, and P2 components of the event‐related potential (ERP) are thought to reflect the sequential processing of auditory stimuli in the human brain. Despite their extensive use in biological, cognitive, and clinical neuroscience, there are no guidelines for how to appropriately power ERP studies using these components.

Handgrip Based Action Information Modulates Attentional Selection: An ERP Study
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021 Prior work shows that the possibility of action to an object (visual affordance) facilitates attentional deployment. We sought to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying this modulation of attention by examining ERPs to target objects that were ...

Temporal Mental Qualities and Selective Attention [PDF]
, 2016 This article presents an argument for the view that we can perceive temporal features without awareness. Evidence for this claim comes from recent empirical work on selective visual attention.

Electrophysiological correlates of amnestic mild cognitive impairment in a simon task. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) represents a prodromal stage of Alzheimer`s disease (AD), especially when additional cognitive domains are affected (Petersen et al., 2009).

Attention, predictive learning, and the inverse base-rate effect: Evidence from event-related potentials [PDF]
, 2014 We report the first electrophysiological investigation of the inverse base-rate effect (IBRE), a robust non-rational bias in predictive learning. In the IBRE, participants learn that one pair of symptoms (AB) predicts a frequently occurring disease ...

Facilitation or disengagement? Attention bias in facial affect processing after short-term violent video game exposure. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Previous research has been inconsistent on whether violent video games exert positive and/or negative effects on cognition. In particular, attentional bias in facial affect processing after violent video game exposure continues to be controversial.

Object-based selection of irrelevant features is not confined to the attended object [PDF]
, 2011 Attention to one feature of an object can bias the processing of unattended features of that object. Here we demonstrate with ERPs in visual search that this object-based bias for an irrelevant feature also appears in an unattended object when it shares ...
