Novel behavioral tasks for studying spatial cognition in rats.
Spatial tasks in rodents are commonly used to study general mechanisms of cognition. We review two groups of novel spatial tasks for rodents and discuss how they can extend our understanding of mechanisms of spatial cognition. The first group represents spatial tasks in which the subject does not locomote. Locomotion influences neural activity in brain structures important for spatial cognition...
متن کاملThe guidance of spatial attention during visual search for color combinations and color configurations.
Representations of target-defining features (attentional templates) guide the selection of target objects in visual search. We used behavioral and electrophysiological measures to investigate how such search templates control the allocation of attention in search tasks where targets are defined by the combination of 2 colors or by a specific spatial configuration of these colors. Target display...
متن کاملAttention to novel and target stimuli in trauma survivors.
Trauma and its consequences can have lasting biological and cognitive effects on those who experience them. This study investigated the extent to which trauma, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and dissociation influenced attention to basic auditory stimuli in a sample of military cadets. After filling out a series of psychometric questionnaires, 27 male military cadets varying in their tra...
متن کاملEmotional stimuli capture spatial attention but do not modulate spatial memory
There is evidence that emotional stimuli capture spatial attention and that visual memory is enhanced for emotional content. Here we examine the relationship between emotional content of stimuli and interactions with spatial memory. To assess spatial memory, a modified version of the Corsi Blocks Task (CBT), utilising emotional stimuli, was employed. In the CBT a series of spatial positions are...
متن کاملAttention Samples Stimuli Rhythmically
Overt exploration or sampling behaviors, such as whisking, sniffing, and saccadic eye movements, are often characterized by a rhythm. In addition, the electrophysiologically recorded theta or alpha phase predicts global detection performance. These two observations raise the intriguing possibility that covert selective attention samples from multiple stimuli rhythmically. To investigate this po...
