A level-k model based on a specific salience-pattern is the only model in the literature that accounts for behaviour in hide-and-seek games.
In this context, our results might be understood as indicating that the prickle-evoking visual stimuli (associated with unpleasant sensations in the nose) evoke enhanced stimulus processing in response to the specific salience of these stimuli for our subjects.
Although the amygdala, basal ganglia and posterior fossa structures would likely show hyperperfusion across species, differences may be observed related to species-specific salience of modulatory systems.
Further studies will be needed to disentangle – if possible – the salience network from a specific tinnitus network.
We used a specific task to directly quantify attention (visual salience and vigilance task).
From this macro-architectural perspective, we examine the extant body of functional neuroimaging research assessing MDD with a specific emphasis on the contributions of default-mode, executive, and salience networks in this debilitating disorder.
Strictly speaking, then, cognitive impenetrability is a specific type of informational encapsulation, albeit a type with special salience in the Fodorian scheme.
But a specific molecular, cellular, or microcircuit signature must exist within the Salience Network that confers selective vulnerability to this system in bvFTD.
In the DMPFC these pictures are apparently not differentiated by preferred sex or specific erotic salience but are rather perceived as a category requiring specific attention.
Whether this "evaluative interoception" deficit begins as domain-specific (social salience only, for example) or more domain-general (social, olfactory gustatory, viscero-autonomic, and nociceptive salience) remains uncertain, but careful lesion deficit correlations in bvFTD may help to clarify how the anterior insula organizes its role in monitoring all aspects of the internal milieu.
As the IPS shows anatomical connections with the DLPFC (Petrides and Pandya 1984), the IPS has been proposed to act as a salience-specific behavioral integrator, binding visual-spatial, motor, and memory information under the influence of DLPFC top-down control (Gottlieb 2007).
