- 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 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...
- The National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program has awarded a $399,042 project grant to Trustees of Dartmouth College to conduct research on audio-visual effects and attentional control in the human brain. The 3-year research project, running from Mar 15, 2025 to Feb 29, 2028, aims to examine how the brain integrates distinct visual and auditory signals to form a coherent perceptual experience, with a focus on the role of spatial location as a...
- 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 $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 $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 Project Grant award of $260,000 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program, awarded on August 1, 2025, supports a collaborative research project between Arizona State University (ASU) and other unnamed partners. The goal of this project is to investigate how gaze-based models and artificial intelligence can be used to measure and guide learner engagement within immersive virtual reality (VR) training experiences, particularly...
- 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 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 National Science Foundation (NSF) Early-Concept Grant for Exploratory Research (EAGER), under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), provides $320,000 in funding to the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA) to develop a novel extended reality (XR) system that leverages embodied cognition principles to assess attention deficit and other cognitive functions. The project aims to create immersive, interactive virtual environments where users engage in cognitively demanding tasks. The system...
