Attention Stabilizes Representations in the Human Hippocampus.
Attention and memory are intricately linked, but how attention modulates brain areas that subserve memory, such as the hippocampus, is unknown. We hypothesized that attention may stabilize patterns of activity in human hippocampus, resulting in distinct but reliable activity patterns for different attentional states. To test this prediction, we utilized high-resolution functional magnetic reson...
متن کاملEffect of Caffeine on the Fixation Component of Eye Movement in the Reading Process
Background: Caffeine is a kind of methylxanthine whose consumption can promote the cognitive and executive functions of the human brain. Objectives: In this study, we seek to investigate the effect of drinking coffee on the period of the eye movement fixation component. Materials and Methods: The research was of the quasi-experimental type. 60 subjects were randomly divided into two group...
متن کاملAutomatic Detection of Attention Shifts in Infancy: Eye Tracking in the Fixation Shift Paradigm
This study measured changes in switches of attention between 1 and 9 months of age in 67 typically developing infants. Remote eye-tracking (Tobii X120) was used to measure saccadic latencies, related to switches of fixation, as a measure of shifts of attention, from a central stimulus to a peripheral visual target, measured in the Fixation Shift Paradigm. Fixation shifts occur later if the cent...
متن کاملFixation Eye Movements
In day to day events we perform complex eye movements for various different reasons, such as object recognition and during self motion. These complex motions can be observed by using eye coils [8] or eye trackers. These techniques have been used for many years in neuroscience in optic flow studies [1] and vestibular studies [9]. Eye tracking is also commonly used in nonhuman primate studies to ...
متن کاملAttention stabilizes the shared gain of V4 populations.
Responses of sensory neurons represent stimulus information, but are also influenced by internal state. For example, when monkeys direct their attention to a visual stimulus, the response gain of specific subsets of neurons in visual cortex changes. Here, we develop a functional model of population activity to investigate the structure of this effect. We fit the model to the spiking activity of...
