IC Fiebelkorn, S Kastner - Trends in cognitive sciences, 2019 - cell.com
Recent evidence has demonstrated that environmental sampling is a fundamentally
rhythmic process. Both perceptual sensitivity during covert spatial attention and the …

Power and phase of alpha oscillations reveal an interaction between spatial and temporal visual attention
SAD Kizuk, KE Mathewson - Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 2017 - direct.mit.edu
Oscillatory brain rhythms can bias attention via phase and amplitude changes, which
modulate sensory activity, biasing information to be processed or ignored. Alpha band (7–14 …

Alpha-band oscillations enable spatially and temporally resolved tracking of covert spatial attention
Covert spatial attention is essential for humans' ability to direct limited processing resources
to the relevant aspects of visual scenes. A growing body of evidence suggests that rhythmic …

Natural rhythms of periodic temporal attention
That attention is a fundamentally rhythmic process has recently received abundant empirical
evidence. The essence of temporal attention, however, is to flexibly focus in time. Whether …

Decoding and reconstructing the focus of spatial attention from the topography of alpha-band oscillations
Many aspects of perception and cognition are supported by activity in neural populations
that are tuned to different stimulus features (eg, orientation, spatial location, color). Goal …
