Attentional load affects automatic emotional processing: evidence from event-related potentials
(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2006)One open question on the relation between attention and emotion concerns the automatic processing of emotional visual stimuli outside the focus of attention. This study examined to what extent the emotional processing at ... -
Binge drinking affects attentional and visual working memory processing in young university students
(Wiley, 2009)Background: Binge Drinking (BD) typically involves heavy drinking over a short time, followed by a period of abstinence, and is common among young people, especially university students. Animal studies have demonstrated ... -
Cognitive control activity is modulated by the magnitude of interference and pre-activation of monitoring mechanisms
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016-12-20)The Simon task is used to study interference from irrelevant spatial information. Interference is manifested by longer reaction times when the required response –based on non-spatial features- is spatially incompatible ... -
Covert orienting of visuospatial attention in the early stages of aging
(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2002)Electrophysiological and behavioral responses were recorded in healthy young (19–23 years) and older (56–66 years) subjects dur- ing the execution ofa visuospatial attention task. The objective was to test whether covert ... -
Electrophysiological Correlates of Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment in a Simon Task
(PLoS, 2013-12-05)Amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) represents a prodromal stage of Alzheimer`s disease (AD), especially when additional cognitive domains are affected (Petersen et al., 2009). Thus, single-domain amnestic MCI (sdaMCI) ... -
Interference of Cellular Phone Conversations with Visuomotor Tasks: An ERP Study
(Hogrefe, 2001)The use of mobile phones has been shown to increase drivers’ reaction times (RTs), but whether this results from interference with attention, stimulus identification, or response production remains unclear. We recorded ... -
Neural correlates of cognitive dysfunction in fibromyalgia patients: Reduced brain electrical activity during the execution of a cognitive control task
(Elsevier, 2019)Objectives Fibromyalgia (FM) is a generalized chronic pain syndrome of unknown aetiology. Although FM patients frequently complain of cognitive dysfunction, this is one of the least studied symptoms. Research on brain ... -
Pain Expressions and Inhibitory Control in Patients With Fibromyalgia: Behavioral and Neural Correlates
(Frontiers Media, 2019)Fibromyalgia (FM) is a generalized chronic pain condition associated with a variety of symptoms, including altered cognitive and emotional processing. It has been proposed that FM patients show a preferential allocation ... -
Reward Associations Magnify Memory-based Biases on Perception
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology Press, 2013)Long-term spatial contextual memories are a rich source of predictions about the likely locations of relevant objects in the environment and should enable tuning of neural processing of unfolding events to optimize perception ... -
Significatividad de la red conceptual de una imagen en condiciones de atención limitada. Análisis en función de los componentes del gist
(2019)[ES] Un vistazo rápido a una imagen es suficiente para que un observador pueda extraer la información necesaria para entenderla, identificarla e, incluso, recordarla; esto es, el gist. Sin embargo, esto resulta más complicado ... -
Time course of attentional modulations on automatic emotional processing
(Elsevier, 2007)In a previous study using event-related potentials (ERPs) [S. Doallo, S. Rodríguez Holguín, F. Cadaveira, Attentional load affects automatic emotional processing: evidence from event-related potentials, Neuroreport 17 ...
