Running head: Attentional Blink 1 Running head: Attentional Blink Attentional Blink Differences Between Adolescent Dyslexic and Normal Readers

The goal of this study was to evaluate the possibility that dyslexic individuals require more working memory resources than normal readers to shift attention from stimulus to stimulus. To test this hypothesis, normal and dyslexic adolescent participated in a Rapid Serial Visual Presentation experiment (Shapiro, Arnell, & Raymond, 1997). Surprisingly, the result showed that the participants with...

Resource sharing in the attentional blink.

Humans have difficulty processing more than one event at a time, as is evidenced by the attentional blink ('blink') phenomenon: the second of two targets in a visual stream of events cannot be reported accurately if it appears between 100 and 500 ms after the first. By using whole-head magnetoencephalography, we show that the probability of behaviourally failing to correctly identify the second...

Temporal dynamics of access to consciousness in the attentional blink

Presentation of two targets in close temporal succession often results in an impairment of conscious perception for the second stimulus. Previous studies have identified several electrophysiological correlates for this so-called 'attentional blink'. Components of the event-related potential (ERP) such as the N2 and the P3, but also oscillatory brain signals have been shown to distinguish betwee...
