Top-down control of exogenous attentional selection is mediated by beta coherence in prefrontal cortex.
Dubey A, Markowitz DA, Pesaran B. Dubey A, et al. Neuron. 2023 Oct 18;111(20):3321-3334.e5. doi: 10.1016/j.neuron.2023.06.025. Epub 2023 Jul 26. Neuron. 2023. PMID: 37499660
Top-down attentional control mechanisms enable selection of the task-relevant target by limiting the influence of sensory information. Although the lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC) is known to mediate top-down control, the neuronal …

Top-down versus bottom-up attentional control: a failed theoretical dichotomy.
Awh E, Belopolsky AV, Theeuwes J. Awh E, et al. Trends Cogn Sci. 2012 Aug;16(8):437-43. doi: 10.1016/j.tics.2012.06.010. Epub 2012 Jul 12. Trends Cogn Sci. 2012. PMID: 22795563 Free PMC article. Review.
Prominent models of attentional control assert a dichotomy between top-down and bottom-up control, with the former determined by current selection goals and the latter determined by physical salience. ...For example, equally salient stimuli asso …

Spatial distribution of emotional attentional blink under top-down attentional control.
Singh D, Sunny MM. Singh D, et al. Cogn Process. 2023 Feb;24(1):153-159. doi: 10.1007/s10339-022-01109-x. Epub 2022 Sep 26. Cogn Process. 2023. PMID: 36156164
Blink occurs when both target and emotional distractor appear in the same stream but not the opposite. However, the influence of top-down attentional control over the dual-stream EIB remains poorly understood. Examining the role of top-down …

Exploring the relationship between perceptual learning and top-down attentional control.
Byers A, Serences JT. Byers A, et al. Vision Res. 2012 Dec 1;74:30-9. doi: 10.1016/j.visres.2012.07.008. Epub 2012 Jul 28. Vision Res. 2012. PMID: 22850344 Free PMC article. Review.
Here, we review the role of top-down attention in both the acquisition and the expression of perceptual learning, as well as the role of learning in more efficiently guiding attentional modulations. ...In turn, training may also act to optimize the eff …

Enhanced or impoverished recruitment of top-down attentional control of inhibition in test anxiety.
Wei H, De Beuckelaer A, Zhou R. Wei H, et al. Biol Psychol. 2021 Apr;161:108070. doi: 10.1016/j.biopsycho.2021.108070. Epub 2021 Mar 13. Biol Psychol. 2021. PMID: 33722566
Controversy exists as to whether high test anxiety (HTA) individuals, when completing an inhibition task, increase or decrease top-down attentional control resources to maintain high task performance. ...These findings support the conclusion that HTA i …

The role of top-down attentional control and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder symptoms in predicting future motor vehicle crash risk.
Aduen PA, Kofler MJ, Bradshaw CP, Sarver DE, Cox DJ. Aduen PA, et al. Neuropsychology. 2020 Nov;34(8):894-905. doi: 10.1037/neu0000707. Neuropsychology. 2020. PMID: 33197201 Free PMC article.
Controlling for ADHD symptoms, top-down attentional control uniquely predicted future crashes, near-crashes, and culpability for future crashes/near-crashes; only arousal decrements portended future near-crashes. Only top-down a …

Top-down control of attention under varying task loads.
Jo S, Kim JY, Han SW. Jo S, et al. Acta Psychol (Amst). 2021 May;216:103310. doi: 10.1016/j.actpsy.2021.103310. Epub 2021 Apr 20. Acta Psychol (Amst). 2021. PMID: 33892264 Free article.
Besides increased perceptual load or the presence of diluters, we hypothesized that either suppression of distractor or enhancement of target via top-down attentional control would also contribute to modulating distractor interference. ...By contrast, …

Brain and Cognitive Mechanisms of Top-Down Attentional Control in a Multisensory World: Benefits of Electrical Neuroimaging.
Matusz PJ, Turoman N, Tivadar RI, Retsa C, Murray MM. Matusz PJ, et al. J Cogn Neurosci. 2019 Mar;31(3):412-430. doi: 10.1162/jocn_a_01360. Epub 2018 Dec 4. J Cogn Neurosci. 2019. PMID: 30513045
This latter finding is indicative of changes in active brain sources. Thus, in multisensory environments, attentional selection is controlled via integrated top-down object representations, and so not only by separate sensory-specific top-down f …

Exploring the carry-over of top-down attentional settings in dynamic conditions.
Thompson C, Jalali M, Hills PJ. Thompson C, et al. Q J Exp Psychol (Hove). 2023 Nov;76(11):2650-2663. doi: 10.1177/17470218231155018. Epub 2023 Feb 10. Q J Exp Psychol (Hove). 2023. PMID: 36691387 Free PMC article.
A top-down attentional set can persist from a relevant task to an irrelevant task, influencing allocation of attentional resources, visual search, and performance. ...However, there was no carry-over from the letter to the picture task in the two-scree …
