Neural evidence reveals the rapid effects of reward history on selective attention
Mary H. MacLean,Barry Giesbrecht +1 more
TL;DR: The modulation of visually evoked activity supports the hypothesis that reward history influences the innate salience of reward associated features, such that even when no longer relevant, nor physically salient, these features have a rapid, persistent, and robust effect on early visual selective attention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Personality predicts temporal attention costs in the attentional blink paradigm
Mary H. MacLean,Karen M. Arnell +1 more
TL;DR: Individual differences in personality traits related to positive affect, negative affect, and cognitive flexibility were used to predict individual differences in AB magnitude, and greater extraversion and openness predicted smaller ABs and greater openness predicted higher overall target accuracy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resting EEG in alpha and beta bands predicts individual differences in attentional blink magnitude
TL;DR: The results suggest that greater attentional engagement at rest, when not engaged in a goal-directed task, is associated with smaller AB magnitudes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A conceptual and methodological framework for measuring and modulating the attentional blink
Mary H. MacLean,Karen M. Arnell +1 more
TL;DR: The important conceptual and methodological issues that should be considered when obtaining, analyzing, and interpreting AB data are discussed, and the pros and cons of various approaches are discussed while providing suggestions as to how best to validly represent the AB and its modulations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Greater attentional blink magnitude is associated with higher levels of anticipatory attention as measured by alpha event-related desynchronization (ERD)
Mary H. MacLean,Karen M. Arnell +1 more
TL;DR: Results support models of the AB that propose that greater attentional investment underlies the AB, and furthermore that this attentionalInvestigation is prepared in anticipation before each RSVP trial.
