Common Neural Recruitment across Diverse Sustained Attention Tasks
At one level "sustained attention" is simply a description of a task demand. It is often used, however, in reference to a putatively unitary capacity to remain engaged in tasks that are lengthy, dull, repetitive and/or characterised by long intervals between relevant events. Deficits in sustained attention have been reported in a range of clinical conditions. Despite this, there is paucity of w...
متن کاملDemographic Variables and Selective, Sustained Attention and Planning through Cognitive Tasks among Healthy Adults
Introduction: Cognitive tasks are considered to be applicable and appropriate in assessing cognitive domains. The purpose of our study is to determine the relationship existence between variables of age, sex and education with selective, sustained attention and planning abilities by means of computerized cognitive tasks among healthy adults. Methods: A cross-sectional study was implemented duri...
متن کاملEvent-Related Brain Dynamics in Continuous Sustained-Attention Tasks
Event-related brain dynamics of electroencephalographic (EEG) activity in a continuous compensatory tracking task (CTT) and in a continuous driving simulation were analyzed by independent component analysis (ICA) and time-frequency techniques. We showed that changes in the level of subject performance are accompanied by distinct changes in EEG spectrum of a class of bilateral posterior independ...
متن کاملSustained attention, attentional selectivity, and attentional capacity across the lifespan.
Changes in sustained attention, attentional selectivity, and attentional capacity were examined in a sample of 113 participants between the ages of 12 and 75. To measure sustained attention, we employed the sustained-attention-to-response task (Robertson, Manly, Andrade, Baddeley, & Yiend, Neuropsychologia 35:747-58, 1997), a short continuous-performance test designed to capture fluctuations in...
