α oscillations related to anticipatory attention follow temporal expectations.
Temporal expectations have been shown to enhance visual analysis of task-relevant events, especially when these are coupled with spatial expectations. Oscillatory brain activity, particularly in the alpha band, has been implicated in regulating excitability in visual areas as a function of anticipatory spatial attention. Here we asked whether temporal expectations derived from regular, rhythmic...

متن کاملIndexing the graded allocation of visuospatial attention using anticipatory alpha oscillations
Lateralization in the desynchronization of anticipatory occipitoparietal alpha (8-12 Hz) oscillations has been implicated in the allocation of selective visuospatial attention. Previous studies have demonstrated that small changes in the lateralization of alpha-band activity are predictive of behavioral performance but have not directly investigated how flexibly alpha lateralization is linked t...
متن کاملAnticipatory attention: an event-related desynchronization approach.
This paper addresses the question of whether anticipatory attention--i.e. attention directed towards an upcoming stimulus in order to facilitate its processing--is realized at the neurophysiological level by a pre-stimulus desynchronization of the sensory cortex corresponding to the modality of the anticipated stimulus, reflecting the opening of a thalamocortical gate in the relevant sensory mo...
متن کاملObject-based attentional selection modulates anticipatory alpha oscillations
Visual cortical alpha oscillations are involved in attentional gating of incoming visual information. It has been shown that spatial and feature-based attentional selection result in increased alpha oscillations over the cortical regions representing sensory input originating from the unattended visual field and task-irrelevant visual features, respectively. However, whether attentional gating ...
