DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2018.07.052
Abstract: ABSTRACT In everyday life, we process mixtures of a variety of sounds. This processing involves the segregation of auditory input and the attentive selection of the stream that is most relevant to current goals. For… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/17461391.2022.2056082
Abstract: ABSTRACT It is well established that adopting an external focus of attention (EF) enhances motor learning when contrasted to an internal focus (IF) or a neutral condition. Despite consistent evidence for this performance-enhancing effect of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/psyp.13065
Abstract: Previous research suggests that young adults do not need active and effortful inhibition to successfully complete the auditory equiprobable go/no-go task, a view that was incorporated into Barry and De Blasio's sequential processing schema for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/0022429416673842
Abstract: Motor performance in familiar tasks is often advantaged when performers focus on the effects of their movements rather than on the movements themselves. But, this phenomenon has yet to be studied systematically in the context… read more here.
