To assess selective attention processes in young and old adults, behavioral and event-
related potential (ERP) measures were recorded. Streams of visual stimuli were presented …

The effects of aging on visuospatial attention were investigated with event-related brain
potentials (ERPs). A central arrow pointed towards (75% valid cues) or away from (25 …

The locus of attentional selection is known to vary with perceptual load (Lavie et al., 2004).
Under voluntary attention, perceptual load modulates selective visual processing at an early …

Selective attention reflects the top-down control of sensory processing that is mediated by
enhancement or inhibition of neural activity. ERPs were used to investigate age-related …

Healthy aging is associated with changes in many neurocognitive functions. While on the
behavioral level, visual spatial attention capacities are relatively stable with increasing age …

The effects of age on the neural processes underlying shifts in visuospatial attention were
studied by non-invasive recording of brain electrical activity. Event-related evoked potentials …

Event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded from healthy young and older subjects
during the execution of a visual search task in which they were required to detect the …

The present paper provides an overview of age-related changes in both involuntary and
voluntary attention in adult subjects as manifested in scalp-recorded ERPs. A decline in …

A better understanding of age-related change in the attentional modulation of perceptual
processing may help elucidate cognitive change. For example, increased cognitive …

We investigated age-related changes in frontal and parietal scalp event-related potential
(ERP) activity during bottom-up and top-down attention. Younger and older participants …
