In the second study, the method was similar, but this time the students thought they were engaged in research into attention tasks.
The study found that avid video game players score better on a range of attention tasks.
No modulation of the speed of performing attention tasks was evident.
The deterioration of performance over time is characteristic for sustained attention tasks.
Indeed, the novices improved their performance on the attention tasks, although they didn't live up to the cracks' standards.
MATB-II was used for workload assessment since it involved multitasking and divided attention tasks [7, 27].
These findings support the robustness of the effect of pain on performance on higher-order attention tasks.
Infants' concurrent performances on visual attention tasks were linked; however, no association was found between their performances on imitation tasks.
Importantly, infants' behaviors on the visual attention tasks predicted their performance on the imitation tasks at 14 months.
Speed of processing (SOP) training is an adaptive cognitive intervention designed to enhance processing speed for attention tasks.
This effect was not moderated by age, type of anxiety disorder, visual attention tasks, or type of disorder-incongruent stimuli.
