Attention Flashcards
seperate attention networks for..
voluntary and involuntary attention
voluntary
- top-down
- endogenous
- dorsal frontoparietal network
welke gebieden bevat het voluntary network
superior parietal lobe (SPL), frontal eye fields (FEFs) and middle frontal gyrus (MFG)
involuntary
-bottom up
- exogenous
- right lateralized ventral frontoparietal network
- detection of behaviourally relevant, unexpected or highly salient stimuli
welke gebieden bevat involuntary
temporoparietal junction TPJ
inferior frontal gyrus IFG
middle frontal gyrus MFG
default mode network is..
internal attention, this region is active when a person is not focussed on the outside world.
welke gebieden bevat default mode
posterior cingulate cortex, medial prefrontal cortex, angular gyrus
oog movement is
overt
zonder oog is
covert
default mode is anti-correlated with ….
top down
disengage attention
problems when the cortical temporoparietal junction is damaged -> involuntary attention!
move attention
problems when the superior colliculi are damaged
engage attention
problems when the pulvinar of thalamus is damaged
contralateral neglect
attentional problems in the other field in vision. ignore stimuli, ,slow response, ignore objects on contralateral side, muscle on controlateral side is worse sometimes. deficits in spatial attention in contralateral visual field. dit is bottom up attention. meestal na damage to the right lateralized bottom up network.
you can make neglect patients see
if they use top-down attention, als je het aanwijst, they can see things. but spontaneously (bottom up) they do not see anything. this is the difference with blind subjects. dus neglect is niet sensory deficits, het is echt een attention problem!!!
dus kort wat gebeurt er bij neglect
damage to bottom up netwerk dus disengaging attention becomes impossible. dit kan je meten met posner cueing task.
neglect is often
temporary, but extinction remains. (niet nieuwe neurons ofzo, maar oefenen) dus bijvoorbeeld 2 vingers zien ze L niet, maar spoon and fork -> dan zien ze de vork wel
balints syndrome
simultanagnosia: problem with attending to more than one object.
optic ataxia: problems with reaching and grasping (oog hand coordinatie)
oculomotor apraxia: problems making voluntary eye movements to objects
–> when the entire top-down attention network in the parietal lobe is damaged.
