Dynamic changes in phase-amplitude coupling facilitate spatial attention control in fronto-parietal cortex

SM Szczepanski, NE Crone, RA Kuperman… - PLoS …, 2014 - journals.plos.org
Attention is a core cognitive mechanism that allows the brain to allocate limited resources
depending on current task demands. A number of frontal and posterior parietal cortical …

Electrical neuroimaging reveals timing of attentional control activity in human brain

JJ Green, JJ McDonald - PLoS Biology, 2008 - journals.plos.org
Voluntarily shifting attention to a location of the visual field improves the perception of events
that occur there. Regions of frontal cortex are thought to provide the top-down control signal …

Control of spatial and feature-based attention in frontoparietal cortex

AS Greenberg, M Esterman, D Wilson… - Journal of …, 2010 - Soc Neuroscience
Visual attention selects task-relevant information from scenes to help achieve behavioral
goals. Attention can be deployed within multiple domains to select specific spatial locations …

Temporal dynamics and response modulation across the human visual system in a spatial attention task: an ECoG study

AB Martin, X Yang, YB Saalmann, L Wang… - Journal of …, 2019 - Soc Neuroscience
The selection of behaviorally relevant information from cluttered visual scenes (often
referred to as “attention”) is mediated by a cortical large-scale network consisting of areas in …

Spatial attention and the effects of frontoparietal alpha band stimulation

MR van Schouwenburg, TP Zanto… - Frontiers in human …, 2017 - frontiersin.org
A frontoparietal network has long been implicated in top-down control of attention. Recent
studies have suggested that this network might communicate through coherence in the …

Distributed attention is implemented through theta-rhythmic gamma modulation

AN Landau, HM Schreyer, S Van Pelt, P Fries - Current biology, 2015 - cell.com
When subjects monitor a single location, visual target detection depends on the pre-target
phase of an∼ 8 Hz brain rhythm [1, 2]. When multiple locations are monitored, performance …

Spatial attention and temporal expectation exert differential effects on visual and auditory discrimination

A Wilsch, MR Mercier, J Obleser… - Journal of Cognitive …, 2020 - direct.mit.edu
Anticipation of an impending stimulus shapes the state of the sensory systems, optimizing
neural and behavioral responses. Here, we studied the role of brain oscillations in mediating …

A long-range fronto-parietal 5-to 10-Hz network predicts “top-down” controlled guidance in a task-switch paradigm

JM Phillips, M Vinck, S Everling… - Cerebral Cortex, 2014 - academic.oup.com
The capacity to rapidly adjust behavioral strategies according to changing task demands is
closely associated with coordinated activity in lateral and medial prefrontal cortices …

Frontoparietal cortex controls spatial attention through modulation of anticipatory alpha rhythms

P Capotosto, C Babiloni, GL Romani… - Journal of …, 2009 - Soc Neuroscience
A dorsal frontoparietal network, including regions in intraparietal sulcus (IPS) and frontal eye
field (FEF), has been hypothesized to control the allocation of spatial attention to …

A dynamic interplay within the frontoparietal network underlies rhythmic spatial attention

IC Fiebelkorn, MA Pinsk, S Kastner - Neuron, 2018 - cell.com
Classic studies of spatial attention assumed that its neural and behavioral effects were
continuous over time. Recent behavioral studies have instead revealed that spatial attention …
