The National Science Foundation awarded a $659,877 project grant to the Regents of the University of Michigan under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075) for the period of July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2026. The grant funds research aimed at studying how salient visual distractions impact ongoing task performance and how humans mitigate distractions to remain productive. Researchers will use a novel forced-response method involving eye-tracking...
This $382,535 National Science Foundation project grant supports research at Yale University to develop understanding of attention in preschool-aged children. The Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences award falls under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), which promotes basic research and education in these fields. Specifically, the two-year project will investigate the emergence of selective and sustained attention to socially relevant audiovisual...
This two-year, $158,962 National Science Foundation project grant supports research at Old Dominion University to understand declines in sustained attention over time. Funded through the NSF's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the research will combine behavioral experiments with statistical modeling. Experiments in a driving simulator and other tasks will examine how automated controls, mental rest, task difficulty and dual-task loads affect vigilance. Researchers...
This three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), provides $475,715 to Vanderbilt University to advance understanding of how visual long-term memory guides visual attention and perception. The researchers will use electroencephalography to record brain activity from participants searching for objects in cluttered scenes. Analyses will reveal whether brain...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $399,042 Project Grant under its Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to Trustees of Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire. The grant, running from March 2025 to February 2028, will fund research on audio-visual effects and the integration of visual and auditory attention. The project aims to examine how spatial location serves as a mechanism for combining sensory inputs from different modalities to form a...
This $283,832 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research to better understand human visual perception and its potential applications in AI systems. The project, titled "COMPCOG: Generating Object Percepts in Peripheral Vision During Naturalistic Attention Tasks," aims to investigate how AI models can generate plausible visual scenes in real-time using limited input data, similar to...
This Project Grant award of $910,000 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences supports research on the "Mechanisms of Willed Attention" at the University of California, Davis (UC Davis). This research, under the NSF's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), aims to investigate the brain mechanisms that enable humans to voluntarily direct their attention, especially in the absence of external cues. Using...
This two-year $138,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) will fund an EEG investigation of temporal orienting of attention for goal-directed eye and hand movements at Providence, Rhode Island. The grant aims to contribute to basic research in the social, behavioral and economic sciences by supporting the monitoring of resources invested in science. Key products will include an EEG study exploring how the brain...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences provides $215,347 to Oregon State University under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075). The funding supports research from April 1, 2023 to March 31, 2025 to understand why vigilance declines over time through behavioral experiments and statistical modeling. The research will examine the types of errors people make during sustained attention...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $519,793 will fund research into visual working memory representations at the University of California, San Diego from July 2022 to June 2025. The award is part of the NSF's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), which supports basic research in cognitive sciences. The research will test theories of how visual working memory holds probabilistic information about object features rather than single values. Using...
