Neural Mechanisms of Sustained Attention Are Rhythmic
Classic models of attention suggest that sustained neural firing constitutes a neural correlate of sustained attention. However, recent evidence indicates that behavioral performance fluctuates over time, exhibiting temporal dynamics that closely ...

Sustained Attention Ability Affects Simple Picture Naming
Sustained attention has previously been shown as a requirement for language production. However, this is mostly evident for difficult conditions, such as a dual-task situation.

Sustained wakefulness and visual attention: moderation by chronotype [PDF]
Introduction - Attentional networks are sensitive to sleep deprivation and increased time awake. However, existing evidence is inconsistent and may be accounted for by differences in chronotype or time-of-day.

Working memory capacity and sustained attention: A cognitive-energetic perspective.
A cognitive-energetic account of individual differences in working memory capacity (WMC) and sustained attention performance is proposed suggesting that variation in the voluntary control of the intensity of attention (intrinsic alertness) is critical ...

Markers of cognitive function in individuals with metabolic disease: Morquio Syndrome and Tyrosinemia Type III [PDF]
We characterized cognitive function in two metabolic diseases. MPS–IVa (mucopolysaccharidosis IVa, Morquio) and tyrosinemia type III individuals were assessed using tasks of attention, language and oculomotor function.

Sustained attention training reduces spatial bias in Parkinson’s disease: a pilot case series [PDF]
Individuals with Parkinson’s disease (PD) commonly demonstrate lateralized spatial biases, which affect daily functioning. Those with PD with initial motor symptoms on the left body side (LPD) have reduced leftward attention, whereas PD with initial ...

SUSTAINED ATTENTION IN HYPERACTIVE CHILDREN*
SUMMARY The ability of hyperactive children to maintain attention on three tasks was examined. One of the tasks, a Choice Reaction Time Task, measured attention for brief periods, while the other two measured sustained attention. Of the latter two, one was an experimenter‐paced task (the Continuous Performance Test) and the other a ...
