Cognitive control (with the closely related concepts of attention control and executive
function) encompasses the collection of processes that are involved in generating and …

This paper reviews research on age‐related changes in working memory and attention
control. This work is interpreted within a framework labeled “GOLDEN aging”(growing of …

While previous research has suggested that music training is associated with improvements
in various cognitive and linguistic skills, the mechanisms mediating or underlying these …

Ever since Berger (1929) demonstrated that it is possible to record the electrical activity of
the brain by placing electrodes on the surface of the scalp, there has been considerable …

Since its discovery in the 1960s, the P300 has been contributing both directly and indirectly
to language research. Perhaps most notably, it has been suggested that the P600, an ERP …

Adaptive training using neurophysiological measures requires efficient classification of
mental workload in real time as a learner encounters new and increasingly difficult levels of …

Research into the nature of 1/f-like, nonoscillatory electrophysiological activity has grown
exponentially in recent years in cognitive neuroscience. The shape of this activity has been …

This study took advantage of the subsecond temporal resolution of ERPs to investigate
mechanisms underlying age-and performance-related differences in working memory …

Here, I propose a view of the architecture of the human information processing system, and
of how it can be adapted to changing task demands (which is the hallmark of cognitive …

Often to the detriment of human decision making, people are prone to an impact bias when
making affective forecasts, overestimating the emotional consequences of future events. The …
