AbstractWhen two stimuli are presented at the same spatial location in close temporal proximity—typically less than 500 msec apart—the second stimulus is often not perceived, a phenomenon known as attentional blink (AB). This striking failure of visual awareness is...

AbstractIt has been suggested that our visual system does not only process stimuli that are directly available to our eyes but also has a role in maintaining information in visual working memory (VWM) over seconds. However, two critical questions remain unresolved....

AbstractAlpha oscillations (8–13 Hz), which are prominent in human EEG, have long been considered a neural marker of relaxation. However, the extent to which different frequency bands and electrode positions of the EEG reflect relaxation remains unclear. This...

AbstractThe idea that the brain is a probabilistic (Bayesian) inference machine, continuously trying to figure out the hidden causes of its inputs, has become very influential in cognitive (neuro)science over recent decades. Here, I present a relatively...

AbstractMetacontrol states involve adapting cognitive control to contextual demands—being more flexible in frequent task-switching environments or more stable in those with infrequent switching. While these metacontrol states can be engaged proactively in anticipation...

AbstractHumans spontaneously synchronize movements to a perceived underlying pulse, or beat, in music. Beat perception may be indexed by the synchronization of neural oscillations to the beat, marked by increases in EEG amplitude at the beat frequency [Nozaradan, S.,...
