Sustained Attention in Major Unipolar Depression
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 2007Patients suffering from a major unipolar depression ( n = 17) and a normal control group ( n = 17) were compared on a noninterrupted vigilance task with a duration of 36 min. The performance decrement over time of the depressed group was indicative of a deficit in sustained attention.

Sustained Attention in Methadone Patients
International Journal of the Addictions, 1982Sustained attention was examined in chronic, high-dose (70-120 mg) methadone patients with a modified Continuous Performance Test (Rosvold et al., 1956) 45 min in duration. Working and nonworking patient groups, and drug-free ex-addict and opiate-naive comparison groups were tested at high, moderate, and low signal rates.

Sustained attention and intelligence
Intelligence, 1990Abstract The sustained attention of retarded and nonretarded adults was assessed during two 60-min vigilance tests that differed in memory demand. Subjects compared visually presented digit sets that were separated by 3 or 6 s; consecutive matching digit sets served as the target event.

Schizotypy and sustained attention.
Journal of Abnormal Psychology, 1991We examined sustained attention in 32 schizotypic and 43 normal control subjects from a large, randomly ascertained nonclinical university population. Schizotypy status was determined with the Perceptual Aberration Scale. Sustained attention was measured with the Continuous Performance Test-Identical Pairs.

The Sustained Attention Test: a measure of attentional disturbance
Computers in Human Behavior, 1998Abstract The Sustained Attention Test is a vigilance task designed to assess the ability of individuals with schizophrenia to sustain attention to visual stimuli. The task requires the subject to attend to two vertically adjacent squares on a computer monitor. Each square changes color at random intervals.

Neurophysiology of Sustained Attention
1989Sustained attention requires the elaborated processing of sensory information by an alert and aroused nervous system. The spectrum of the electroencephalogram provides useful information concerning the state of CNS arousal as related to vigilance performance. Similarly, taskevoked pupillary responses reflect the intensity of cognitive processing, which

Generating and Sustaining Attention
2009A few years ago I would announce in my motivation classes that the study of curiosity had been neglected in the educational and psychological literature. But, that seems to have changed! Maybe it’s because of the re-emergence of interest in multimedia, increased concerns about decreases in invention and patent applications in our society, or just ...

Focused and Sustained Attention
2013The selection of stimuli and responses for cognitive processing is an essential element of attention. As we have discussed in the preceding chapters, the processes underlying selective attention has been a primary emphasis. Yet, as the cognitive science of attention evolved, it became evident that it was necessary to account for other important aspects
