This study investigates how sleep affects motor sequence learning by analyzing brain oscillations, finding that sleep enhances post-movement parietal beta synchronization.

This study uses pupillometry in an auditory task to show that attention modulates arousal globally and selectively, supporting the dual role of norepinephrine.

The paper shows that negative-valence visual stimulation at 5 Hz enhances subcortical theta oscillations and improves visual search and memory in humans.

The paper shows spectro-temporal acoustical features reliably distinguish speech from song across 21 societies using machine learning and human listener analysis.

This study examines how distractibility components change with age, finding that sustained attention decreases and distraction increases in older adults, while voluntary orienting remains stable.

The paper finds that high dream recallers show larger ERP amplitudes for both bottom-up and top-down attentional processes during passive listening, suggesting enhanced attentional mechanisms without affecting behavioral performance.

The paper examines how attentional and motor components contribute to distractibility across childhood to adulthood, finding distinct developmental trajectories for each component.

This study examines differences in sustained attention and distraction in preschoolers, finding that lower socioeconomic status is associated with reduced sustained attention and increased impulsivity.
