Transient human auditory cortex activation during volitional attention shifting
While strong activation of auditory cortex is generally found for exogenous orienting of attention, endogenous, intra-modal shifting of auditory attention has not yet been demonstrated to evoke transient activation of the auditory cortex. Here, we used fMRI to test if endogenous shifting of attention is also associated with transient activation of the auditory cortex. In contrast to previous st...
متن کاملNonauditory events of a behavioral procedure activate auditory cortex of highly trained monkeys.
A central tenet in brain research is that early sensory cortex is modality specific, and, only in exceptional cases, such as deaf and blind subjects or professional musicians, is influenced by other modalities. Here we describe extensive cross-modal activation in the auditory cortex of two monkeys while they performed a demanding auditory categorization task: after a cue light was turned on, mo...
متن کاملActivation of the caudal anterior cingulate cortex due to task-related interference in an auditory Stroop paradigm.
Successful information processing requires the focusing of attention on a certain stimulus property and the simultaneous suppression of irrelevant information. The Stroop task is a useful paradigm to study such attentional top-down control in the presence of interference. Here, we investigated the neural correlates of an auditory Stroop task using fMRI. Subjects focused either on tone pitch (re...
متن کاملVisual attention modulates brain activation to angry voices.
In accordance with influential models proposing prioritized processing of threat, previous studies have shown automatic brain responses to angry prosody in the amygdala and the auditory cortex under auditory distraction conditions. However, it is unknown whether the automatic processing of angry prosody is also observed during cross-modal distraction. The current fMRI study investigated brain r...
متن کاملPhonological working memory with auditory presentation of pseudo-words -- an event related fMRI Study.
Phonological working memory (PWM) tasks consist of a sequence of stimulus-encoding, maintenance and response. Few previous functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies of PWM have employed event-related designs that make it possible to analyze the activations associated with each phase of such a task. The exploration of the cortical activation that takes place during the maintenance of ...
