Evidence for a dichotomy between the planning of an action and its on-line control in
humans is reviewed. This evidence suggests that planning and control each serve a …

Emerging hypotheses suggest that efficient cognitive functioning requires the integration of
separate, but interconnected cortical networks in the brain. Although task-related measures …

In 7 experiments, the authors explored whether visual attention (the ability to select relevant
visual information) and visual working memory (the ability to retain relevant visual …

We combined measures from event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI),
diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), and cognitive performance (visual search response time) to …

A sequel to the popular Zen and the Brain further explores pivotal points of intersection in
Zen Buddhism, neuroscience, and consciousness, arriving at a new synthesis of information …

Orienting spatial attention to locations in the extrapersonal world has been intensively
investigated during the past decades. Recently, it was demonstrated that it is also possible …

Seeking and selectively attending to significant extrapersonal stimuli in a dynamic
environment requires the updating of an attentional priority map. Using functional magnetic …

Our previous research on traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients has shown a strong
relationship between specific white matter (WM) diffusion properties and motor deficits. The …

According to a longstanding view, inferior as opposed to superior parietal cortex critically
contributes to the spatial attentional deficits encountered following unilateral parietal …

Visual attention span (VAS), which refers to the window size of multielement parallel
processing in a short time, plays an important role in higher‐level cognition (eg, reading) as …
