Visual attention enables us to selectively prioritize or suppress information in the
environment. Prominent models concerned with the control of visual attention differentiate …

Recently it was argued that in addition to top-down and bottom-up processes, lingering
biases of selection history play a major role in visual selection (Awh, Belopolsky & …

The present paper argues for the notion that when attention is spread across the visual field
in the first sweep of information through the brain visual selection is completely stimulus …

Orienting of spatial attention is a family of phylogenetically old mechanisms developed to
select information for further processing. Information can be selected via top-down or …

Studies of attention and working memory address the fundamental limits in our ability to
encode and maintain behaviorally relevant information, processes that are critical for goal …

The present study examines changes in a variety of oculomotoric variables as a function of
increasing sleepiness in 129 participants, who have been passed through a broad range of …

The ability to suppress distractors is critical for the successful completion of goal-oriented
behaviors. This is particularly true for everyday behaviors that take time to accomplish and …

Theoretical frameworks of anxiety propose that attentional biases to threat-related stimuli
cause or maintain anxious states. The current paper draws on theoretical frameworks and …

The saccadic eye movement system provides researchers with a powerful tool with which to
explore the cognitive control of behaviour. It is a behavioural system whose limited output …

Drawing on a modern neurocognitive framework, this full-color textbook introduces the entire
field of cognition through an engaging narrative. Emphasizing the common neural …
