This $223,136 National Science Foundation project grant supports research into the causes and consequences of early quitting in visual search tasks. Funded under the NSF's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the two-year award to Connecticut College will investigate how distracting objects can alter decision-making processes and cause individuals to terminate searches earlier than they otherwise would. Researchers will use various experimental protocols and...
This $341,347 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will support research on the cognitive processes involved in visual search tasks. The project aims to understand how the human brain guides attention and makes decisions during visual search, which impacts daily activities like finding misplaced items or navigating crowded environments. The research will leverage a variety of methods including...
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 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 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...
The U.S. National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) has awarded a $1,496,542 Project Grant (CFDA 93.242 - Mental Health Research Grants) to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) to conduct research on quantifying distractibility in academic settings. The 5-year project, which began on September 18, 2024, aims to develop innovative approaches to measure distractibility in neurotypical adolescents and youth with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The research team will...
The University of Chicago was awarded a $499,999 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation on May 1, 2021 to complete work by April 30, 2024. The grant is part of the NSF's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), which aims to promote basic research and education in these fields. Under the award, the University will predict attention fluctuations and their consequences for memory from functional brain connectivity. The research will contribute to scientific...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $550,000 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to the Regents of the University of Michigan to fund research on the neural mechanisms underlying conflict resolution. The research aims to: 1) validate a computational model of the response preparation process for automatic and goal-directed responding using physiological measurements; 2) compare the model against prior sequential sampling models; 3)...
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...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $399,042 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to Trustees of Dartmouth College. The grant funds research to investigate audiovisual interactions and how spatial attention influences the integration of visual and auditory information in the human brain. The project aims to examine the time course of exogenous spatial attention, assess interactions between exogenous cross-modal attention and...
