Humans use prior expectations to improve perception, especially of sensory signals that are degraded or ambiguous. However, if sensory input deviates from prior expectations, correct perception depends on adjusting or ... -
Working memory training and transcranial electrical brain stimulation
(2018-10-20)Working memory training improves performance on trained and untrained working memory tasks, but there is little consistent evidence that these gains benefit everyday tasks that rely on working memory. Evidence has shown ... -
Neural Decoding of Bistable Sounds Reveals an Effect of Intention on Perceptual Organization.
(2018-03)Auditory signals arrive at the ear as a mixture that the brain must decompose into distinct sources, based to a large extent on acoustic properties of the sounds. An important question concerns whether listeners have ... -
Children's academic attainment is linked to the global organization of the white matter connectome.
(2018-03-13)Literacy and numeracy are important skills that are typically learned during childhood, a time that coincides with considerable shifts in large-scale brain organization. However, most studies emphasize focal brain contributions ...
