Cerebral mechanisms underlying orienting of attention towards auditory frequency changes.
Brain mechanisms underlying detection of auditory frequency changes were studied with event-related potentials (ERPs) in 14 human subjects discriminating visual stimuli. Scalp-current density mapping revealed bilateral components of mismatch negativity (MMN) in frontal and auditory cortices. Deviance-related activations in frontal and temporal cortex began to be significant at 94 ms and 154 ms ...
متن کاملMeasuring auditory selective attention using frequency tagging
Frequency tagging of sensory inputs (presenting stimuli that fluctuate periodically at rates to which the cortex can phase lock) has been used to study attentional modulation of neural responses to inputs in different sensory modalities. For visual inputs, the visual steady-state response (VSSR) at the frequency modulating an attended object is enhanced, while the VSSR to a distracting object i...
متن کاملAn electrophysiological and behavioral investigation of involuntary attention towards auditory frequency, duration and intensity changes.
We measured behavior and event-related brain potentials (ERPs) in 12 subjects performing on an audio-visual distraction paradigm to investigate the cerebral mechanisms of involuntary attention towards stimulus changes in the acoustic environment. Subjects classified odd/even numbers presented on a computer screen 300 ms after the occurrence of a task-irrelevant auditory stimulus, by pressing th...
متن کاملAttention improves population-level frequency tuning in human auditory cortex.
Attention improves auditory performance in noisy environments by either enhancing the processing of task-relevant stimuli ("gain"), suppressing task-irrelevant information ("sharpening"), or both. In the present study, we investigated the effect of focused auditory attention on the population-level frequency tuning in human auditory cortex by means of magnetoencephalography. Using complex stimu...
متن کاملComparing auditory sustained attention in children with auditory processing disorder and normal children
Introduction: Auditory processing disorder (APD) is a type of abnormal perceptual processing of auditory information within the central auditory nervous system that could be influenced by cognitive factors, such as attention. Attention is one of most important cognitive functions in the development of learning in children, so it is important to recognize and evaluate a variety of attention defi...
