An increasing number of human electroencephalography (EEG) studies examining the
earliest component of the visual evoked potential, the so-called C1, have cast doubts on the …

We describe the use of behavioral, neuroimaging, and genetic methods to examine
individual differences in cognition and affect, guided by three criteria:(1) relevance to human …

A load theory of attention in which distractor rejection depends on the level and type of load
involved in current processing was tested. A series of experiments demonstrates that …

Visual working memory (VWM) is a remarkable skill dependent on the brain's ability to
construct and hold an internal representation of the world for later comparison with an …

Objective In the present study, we investigated how the electrical activity in the sensorimotor
cortex contributes to improved cognitive processing capabilities and how SMR …

Selective visual attention is thought to be comprised of distinct neuronal networks that serve
different attentional functions. The Attention Network Test (ANT) has been introduced to …

Load Theory assumes that the extent of processing of task-irrelevant information depends
on the level (high vs. low load) and type (perceptual vs. working memory) of task load. In this …

Recent theories of selective attention assume that the more attention is required by a task,
the earlier are irrelevant stimuli filtered during perceptual processing. Previous functional …

Neural correlates of word recognition are commonly studied with (rapid) serial visual
presentation (RSVP), a condition that eliminates three fundamental properties of natural …

The earliest cortical location at which attention influences visual processing is controversial.
To address this issue, the C1 and P1 components of cue-elicited ERPs were examined in a …
