Optimal trans-saccadic integration relies on visual working memory.
(2018-12)Saccadic eye movements alter the visual processing of objects of interest by bringing them from the periphery, where there is only low-resolution vision, to the high-resolution fovea. Evidence suggests that people are able ... -
Oxytocin increases bias, but not accuracy, in face recognition line-ups.
(2015-07)Previous work indicates that intranasal inhalation of oxytocin improves face recognition skills, raising the possibility that it may be used in security settings. However, it is unclear whether oxytocin directly acts upon ... -
Prefrontal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) enhances behavioral and EEG markers of proactive control.
(2019)This study examined the effects of stimulation targeting dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) on behavioral and neural oscillatory markers of proactive cognitive control in healthy adults. We hypothesized that active ... -
The profile of attention differs between locations orthogonal to and in line with reach direction.
(2017-11)People make movements in a variety of directions when interacting with the world around them. It has been well documented that attention shifts to the goal of an upcoming movement, whether the movement is a saccade or a ... -
Similar representations of emotions across faces and voices.
(2017-09)[Correction Notice: An Erratum for this article was reported in Vol 17(6) of Emotion (see record 2017-18585-001). In the article, the copyright attribution was incorrectly listed and the Creative Commons CC-BY license ... -
The spatial and temporal properties of attentional selectivity for saccades and reaches.
(2019-08-01)The preparation and execution of saccades and goal-directed movements elicits an accompanying shift in attention at the locus of the impending movement. However, some key aspects of the spatiotemporal profile of this ... -
The spatiotemporal characteristics of the attentional shift relative to a reach.
(2015)While the attentional shift preceding a saccadic eye movement has been well documented, the mechanisms surrounding the attentional shift preceding a reach are not well understood. It is unknown whether these mechanisms may ... -
Stronger saccadic suppression of displacement and blanking effect in children.
(2020-10-01)Humans do not notice small displacements to objects that occur during saccades, termed saccadic suppression of displacement (SSD), and this effect is reduced when a blank is introduced between the pre- and postsaccadic ... -
Transsaccadic integration is dominated by early, independent noise.
(2019-06-03)Humans are able to integrate pre- and postsaccadic percepts of an object across saccades to maintain perceptual stability. Previous studies have used Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) to determine that integration occurs ... -
What Is Time Good for in Working Memory?
(SAGE Publications, 2021-07-26)Giving people more time to process information in working memory improves their performance on working memory tasks. It is often assumed that free time given after presentation of an item enables maintenance processes to ...
