We review recent evidence for the hemispheric lateralization of attentional systems in the
human brain. There is abundant anatomical, neuroimaging, and neuromodulatory evidence …

Selective attention is a fundamental cognitive function that guides behavior by selecting and
prioritizing salient or relevant sensory information of our environment. Despite early …

Exogenous attention, the process that makes external salient stimuli pop-out of a visual
scene, is essential for survival. How attention-capturing events modulate human brain …

We all know what attention is. Attention is so obvious and apparent that up until recently
nobody really took notice of it. According to William James (1890), attention “is the taking …

Loneliness is broadly described as a negative emotional response resulting from the
differences between the actual and desired social relations of an individual, which is related …

Salient stimuli can capture attention in a bottom-up manner; however, this attentional
capture can be suppressed in a top-down manner. It has been shown that individuals with …

Visual neglect is a disabling consequence of right hemisphere damage, whereby patients
fail to detect left-sided objects. Its precise mechanisms are debated, but there is some …

There are growing concerns that increased screen device usage may have a detrimental
impact on classroom behaviour and attentional focus. The consequences of screen use on …

Based on an impressive body of evidence coming from lesion neuropsychology,
neuroimaging, neurostimulation, and neurophysiology, Doricchi et al.'s scholarly review [1] …

Behavioral and neurophysiological experiments have demonstrated that distinct and
common cognitive processes and associated neural substrates maintain allocentric and …
