Background: Phylogenetics is one of the main methodologies to understand cross-cutting principles of evolution, such as common ancestry and speciation. Phylogenetic trees, however, are reportedly challenging to teach and learn. Furthermore, phylogene...

New wearable devices and technologies provide unprecedented scope to augment or substitute human perceptual abilities. However, the flexibility to reorganize brain processing to use novel sensory signals during early sensitive periods in infancy is m...

Self-association enhances early attentional selection through automatic prioritization of socially salient signals (2024)
Preprint / Working Paper
Scheller, M., Tünnermann, J., Fredriksson, K., Fang, H., & Sui, J. (2024). Self-association enhances early attentional selection through automatic prioritization of socially salient signals

Efficiently processing self-related information is critical for cognition, yet the earliest mechanisms enabling this self-prioritization remain unclear. By combining a temporal order judgement task with computational modelling based on the Theory of...

Introduction:
Visual experience has a substantial effect on how individuals construct a template of their own bodies in space. Whether the absence of total or partial visual exposure in individuals of both genders allows the buffering of harmful ef...
