- 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 SBE Office of Multidisciplinary Activities awarded The Ohio State University $615,666 on June 1, 2026, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) to investigate the consequences of attentional disruptions for perception, memory, and decision-making. The research combines behavioral experiments, neuromodulation, and computational analyses to examine how dynamic decisions about spatial attention and distraction affect ongoing...
- The National Science Foundation SBE Office of Multidisciplinary Activities awarded the University of Missouri System $521,472 on August 1, 2026, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) to conduct cognitive research on learned attentional control and signal suppression. The recipient will conduct laboratory experiments using eye-tracking and neural measures to understand how the brain inhibits salient distractors and learns to suppress irrelevant signals during...
- 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 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 $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...
