Attentional modulation of visual processing. (2004, background): “Brainimaging studies have found that directing attention to a particular feature, such as motion, causes increases in neuronal activity in areas selective for the attended feature (e.g., Beauchamp et al. 1997, Corbetta et al. 1991, O’Craven et al. 1997, Saenz et al. 2002, Saenz et al. 2003).”
Selective neural representation of objects relevant for navigation (2004, result): “This finding is consistent with earlier reports associating the cognitive effort of paying attention with increased neural activity in ventral occipitotemporal region”
Neural mechanisms of top-down control during spatial and feature attention (2003, background): “Indeed, this sensitivity to the location of the cue is more consistent with what is known about attentional enahancements that have been observed in retinotopic and feature selective areas rather than with what is known about the locus of attentional control mechanisms (Anllo-Vento et al., 1998; Cha”
Modeling the influence of task on attention. (2005, background): “This first set of results suggested that the spatially global ( Saenz, Buracas, & Boynton, 2002 ) (one weight”
Feature-based attention increases the selectivity of population responses in primate visual cortex. (2004, background): “The activity of MT neurons is modulated by the attended It should be emphasized that despite this nonmultiplicadirection of motion [2, 7].”
Visual attention: The past 25 years (2011, result): “These results are consistent with those of Anton-Erxleben et al. (2007) and with the explanation they proposed to account for effects of attention on the size of an object.”
A mechanistic cortical microcircuit of attention for amplification, normalization and suppression. (2015, background): “In layer 4, the effects of both spatial and feature-based amplification signals are summed up additively because this behavior was observed in several areas in the visual cortex (Treue & Trujillo, 1999: area MT; Saenz et al., 2002: areas V1, V2, V3A, V4 and MT+).”
