Attentional control moderates the relationship between activation of the cognitive attentional syndrome and symptoms of psychopathology (2012, neutral): “Bishop (2009) proposed that weaknesses in neural regions that likely lead to impoverished AC (i.e., prefrontal cortex regions) might reflect processing style deficits that can be modified via training that helps individuals maintain attentional focus.”
Influence of neuroticism and conscientiousness on working memory training outcome (2012, result): “In line with that, neuroimaging studies revealed reduced neuronal efficiency as well as impoverished recruitment of prefrontal attentional control mechanisms of subjects scoring high in neuroticism when performing a WM task (Bishop, 2009; Gray et al., 2005).”
When time slows down: The influence of threat on time perception in anxiety (2010, background): “…anxious individuals have been found to display larger performance costs when task demands require high levels of attentional control (e.g., Bishop, 2009), and to show an abnormally large attentional bias towards threatening information (Bar-Haim, Lamy, Pergamin, Bakermans-Kranenburg, &…”
Temporal Dynamics of Attentional Bias (2015, background): “Such temporal dynamics may reflect attentional dyscontrol (Bishop, 2008; Bishop, Duncan, Brett, & Lawrence, 2004; Derryberry & Reed, 2002; Eysenck et al., 2007) or controlled efforts to regulate emotional responding (i.e., readjust attentional allocation; Heeren, De Raedt, Koster, & Philippot,…”
Mechanisms of Attentional Biases towards Threat in the Anxiety Disorders: An Integrative Review (2009, background): “, 1998), and difficulty in disengagement with higherorder control mechanisms (e.g., PFC activity; Bishop et al., 2004; Bishop, 2009), it seems reasonable to conclude that facilitated attention precedes difficulty in disengagement when the two occur together.”
New perspectives in attentional control theory (2011, background): “Bishop (2009) agreed with the assumption that anxiety is associated with a broad impairment of attentional control.”
Dissecting the uncinate fasciculus: disorders, controversies and a hypothesis. (2013, background): “…R. Olson, Department of Psychology, Temple University, 1701 N. 13th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19122 E-mail: iolson@temple.edu The uncinate fasciculus is a bidirectional, long-range white matter tract that connects lateral orbitofrontal cortex and Brodmann area 10 with the anterior temporal lobes.”
Eye tracking of attention in the affective disorders: a meta-analytic review and synthesis. (2012, result): “This claim is supported by several studies documenting attentional control deficits related to non-threatening stimuli in anxiety (e.g., Ansari & Derakshan, 2011a; Bishop, 2009).”
The influence of negative emotions on pain: Behavioral effects and neural mechanisms (2009, neutral): “Intriguingly, individuals with a disposition to experience anxiety (high trait anxiety) show a reduced DLPFC during an attention demanding task when distracting information had to be ignored (Bishop, 2009), indicating impaired attention control.”
Mathematics Anxiety: What Have We Learned in 60 Years? (2016, background): “For example, Bishop (2009) found that, even in the absence of threat stimuli, people with high trait anxiety showed less prefrontal activation in attentional control tasks than people with lower trait anxiety, and this was associated with less efficient performance.”
