Spectral Diversity in Default Mode Network Connectivity Reflects Behavioral State

Published in: Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, Volume 30, Issue 4, April 2018, 526-539 Abstract "Default mode network (DMN) functional connectivity is thought to occur primarily in low frequencies (<0.1 Hz), resulting in most studies removing high frequencies during data preprocessing. In ...

Hearing Shapes: Event-related Potentials Reveal the Time Course of Auditory–Visual Sensory Substitution

Published in: Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, Volume 30, Issue 4, April 2018, 498-513 Abstract "In auditory–visual sensory substitution, visual information (e.g., shape) can be extracted through strictly auditory input (e.g., soundscapes). Previous studies have shown that image-to-sound conversions that follow simple ...

Event-related Electroencephalographic Lateralizations Mark Individual Differences in Spatial and Nonspatial Visual Selection

Published in: Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, Volume 30, Issue 4, April 2018, 482-497 Abstract "Selective attention controls the distribution of our visual system's limited processing resources to stimuli in the visual field. Two independent parameters of visual selection can be quantified ...

Oscillatory Mechanisms of Response Conflict Elicited by Color and Motion Direction: An Individual Differences Approach

Published in: Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, Volume 30, Issue 4, 468-481 Abstract "Goal-directed behavior requires control over automatic behavior, for example, when goal-irrelevant information from the environment captures an inappropriate response and conflicts with the correct, goal-relevant action. Neural oscillations in ...
