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...
Haskins Laboratories, Inc. was awarded a $117,463 project grant from the National Science Foundation to develop attention in preschool children. The grant was awarded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) on September 1, 2021, with a completion date of April 30, 2023. Through this funding, Haskins Laboratories will contribute to basic research and education in social and behavioral sciences by conducting a project to monitor and understand how attention...
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...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $466,640 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to The Trustees of Princeton University. The award, titled "CAREER: The Receptive Field as a Window into the Developing Brain," supports research to measure how the parietal lobe and cerebellum in the brain mature during typical development and support a child's ability to visually attend to their environment. The project aims to understand...
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 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...
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...
This $511,527 project grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) aims to investigate the developmental trajectory of cerebral lateralization for language and visual-spatial abilities in children aged 5 to 11. The research team at The Johns Hopkins University will use behavioral testing and functional brain imaging to examine how brain activation patterns change over...
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...
