Selective Visual Attention to Emotion [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2007 Visual attention can be voluntarily directed toward stimuli and is attracted by stimuli that are emotionally significant. The present study explored the case when both processes coincide and attention is directed to emotional stimuli. Participants viewed a rapid and continuous stream of high-arousing erotica and mutilation stimuli as well as low ...

A Dissociation of Attention and Awareness in Phase-sensitive but Not Phase-insensitive Visual Channels [PDF]
, 2010 The elements most vivid in our conscious awareness are the ones to which we direct our attention. Scientific study confirms the impression of a close bond between selective attention and visual awareness, yet the nature of this association remains ...

Dynamics of alpha suppression index both modality specific and general attention processes
NeuroImage, 2023 EEG alpha power varies under many circumstances requiring visual attention. However, mounting evidence indicates that alpha may not only serve visual processing, but also the processing of stimuli presented in other sensory modalities, including hearing.

Reappraisal of stress improves selective attention
Journal of Human Environmental Studies, 2019 Everyday stress is a negative experience that impairs cognitive performance. Managing negative emotions competes with executive function processes. Therefore, reducing negative emotion could improve cognitive function while under stress.

Happy but still focused: failures to find evidence for a mood-induced widening of visual attention [PDF]
, 2013 In models of affect and cognition it is held that positive affect broadens the scope of attention. Consistent with this claim, previous research has indeed suggested that positive affect is associated with impaired selective attention as evidenced by ...

Temporal precedence of emotion over attention modulations in the lateral amygdala: Intracranial ERP evidence from a patient with temporal lobe epilepsy [PDF]
, 2010 Previous fMRI studies have reported mixed evidence for the influence of selective attention on amygdala responses to emotional stimuli, with some studies showing "automatic" emotional effects to threat-related stimuli without attention (or even without ...

Cross-modal deactivations during modality-specific selective attention
BMC Neurology, 2008 Background Processing stimuli in one sensory modality is known to result in suppression of other sensory-specific cortices. Additionally, behavioral experiments suggest that the primary consequence of paying attention to a specific sensory modality is ...

A modified Alamouti scheme for frequency selective channels incorporating turbo equalization [PDF]
, 2002 The Alamouti scheme can achieve transmit diversity in the presence of frequency selective flat fading channels. The technique has received considerable attention mainly because of its processing simplicity. Recently, a modification to the Alamouti scheme

Response terminated displays unload selective attention
Frontiers in Psychology, 2013 Perceptual load theory successfully replaced the early versus late selection debate by appealing to adaptive control over the efficiency of selective attention.
