Normal and impaired reflexive orienting of attention after central nonpredictive cues.

30 Mar 2009 Recent studies suggest that stimuli with directional meaning can trigger lateral shifts of visuospatial attention when centrally presented as noninformative cues. We investigated covert orienting in healthy participants and in a group of 17 right ... Read more...

A novel Italian presenilin 2 gene mutation with prevalent behavioral phenotype.

27 Feb 2009 Presenilin mutations are the main cause of familial Alzheimer's disease. So far, more than 160 mutations in the Presenilin 1 gene (PSEN1) and approximately 10 mutations in the homologous Presenilin 2 gene (PSEN2) have been identified. Some PSEN1 ... Read more...

Puppets, robots, critics, and actors within a taxonomy of attention for developmental disorders.

30 Aug 2008 This review proposes a new taxonomy of automatic and controlled attention. The taxonomy distinguishes among the role of the attendee (puppet and robot, critic and actor), the attention process (stimulus orienting vs. response control), and the ... Read more...
