A taxonomy of external and internal attention. (2011, neutral): “Attention facilitates sensory processing throughout cortex, even changing the qualia of how attended objects are perceived (Carrasco et al. 2004).”
Feature-based attention in visual cortex. (2006, background): “Spatial attention will increase the gain of all neurons whose receptive field overlaps the current attentional focus, creating an enhanced representation at that location that is akin to a local increase in contrast [41,43] and that creates a corresponding perceptual effect [ 44 ].”
Affective picture processing: an integrative review of ERP findings. (2008, background): “Behavioral findings of affective influences on perception and visuo-spatial attention (Carrasco et al., 2004; Lundqvist and Öhman, 2005; Phelps et al., 2006; Öhman et al., 2001), as well as the evidence from non-affective ERPs that correlate with visuo-spatial attention (Hillyard and Anllo-Vento, 19”
Mental Imagery: Functional Mechanisms and Clinical Applications (2015, neutral): “For example, attention alone can increase stimulus contrast, color, or coherency [9–11].”
Retinotopic and non-retinotopic stimulus encoding in binocular rivalry and the involvement of feedback. (2008, neutral): “Since attention is also proposed to inﬂuence rivalry through feedback (e.g., by increasing subjective contrast; Carrasco, Ling, & Read, 2004; Klink et al., 2008; Reynolds & Chelazzi, 2004), perhaps adaptation-based and attention-based inﬂuences take similar routes toward their inﬂuence on rivalry.”
