Attention Performance Measured by Attention Network Test Is Correlated with Global and Regional Efficiency of Structural Brain Networks
Functional neuroimaging studies have indicated the involvement of separate brain areas in three distinct attention systems: alerting, orienting, and executive control (EC). However, the structural correlates underlying attention remains unexplored. Here, we utilized graph theory to examine the neuroanatomical substrates of the three attention systems measured by attention network test (ANT) in ...
متن کاملAssociations between regional cortical thickness and attentional networks as measured by the attention network test.
Efficient attention is pivotal for cognitive functioning, and individual differences in attentional functions are likely related to variations in structural properties of the brain. Attention is supported by separate processes, and models of the relationship between attention and brain structure must take this into account. The Attention Network Test (ANT) yields behavioral measures of 3 indepe...
متن کاملAttentional performance is correlated with the local regional efficiency of intrinsic brain networks
Attention is a crucial brain function for human beings. Using neuropsychological paradigms and task-based functional brain imaging, previous studies have indicated that widely distributed brain regions are engaged in three distinct attention subsystems: alerting, orienting and executive control (EC). Here, we explored the potential contribution of spontaneous brain activity to attention by exam...
متن کاملWorking Memory Capacity and Attention Network Test Performance
Complex span tasks are predictive of many aspects of behavior, in both experimental and applied areas of cognitive psychology. Our view is that these tasks measure primarily working memory capacity (WMC), which we argue is the ability to control attention. The development of the Attention Network Test (ANT) provided the opportunity to study the relationship between WMC and specific types of att...
متن کاملAttention Program and Math Performance of Students With Intellectual Disability
Objectives: The aim of the present study was to determine the effectiveness of attention training on the math performance of elementary school students with intellectual disability. Methods: The present research was a quasi-experimental study by pre-test, post-test design with the control group. The study population comprised students with intellectual disability aged 10-12 years. Subjects wer...
