Abstract:Attention allows us to selectively enhance the processing of specific locations or features in our external environment while simultaneously filtering out momentarily irrelevant information. It is currently hypothesized that this is achieved through the boosting of relevant sensory signals which biases the competition between competing neural representations. Recent neurophysiological and behavioral studies have revealed that attention is a fundamentally rhythmic process, tightly linked to neural oscillations … Show more
