Previous research indicates that children from lower socioeconomic backgrounds show
deficits in aspects of attention, including a reduced ability to filter irrelevant information and …

Past research suggests a link between socioeconomic status (SES) and brain processes in
children, but direct evidence from neuroimaging is scarce. The authors investigated the …

Although differences in selective attention skills have been identified in children from lower
compared to higher socioeconomic status (SES) backgrounds, little is known about these …

Behavioral and electrophysiological evidence suggests that the development of selective
attention extends over the first two decades of life. However, much of this research may …

The development of auditory selective attention was assessed using event-related brain
potentials (ERPs) and behavioral measures, with children (mean age= 8.1), adolescents …

In a dichotic listening paradigm, event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded to linguistic
and nonlinguistic probe stimuli embedded in 2 different narrative contexts as they were …

In an earlier study of an epidemiological sample of 435 urban 8-year-old children, factor
analytically-derived components of attention, as assessed by neuropsychological tests, were …

A longitudinal study of young attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) boys has found
clear evidence for developmental abnormalities in event-related potential (ERP) waves that …

Using information from research on the neuroplasticity of selective attention and on the
central role of successful parenting in child development, we developed and rigorously …

Recent behavioral studies suggest that children with poor language abilities have difficulty
with attentional filtering, or noise exclusion. However, as behavioral performance represents …
