These include measures of visual working memory capacity (vWMC), vigilance, attentional control, and performance on moderate prevalence search.
A multiple regression model was used to low prevalence search accuracy1 from the factors high prevalence search performance, K, vigilance, attentional control, and extraversion.
We build on the individual differences approach and assess 141 observers' visual working memory capacity (vWMC), vigilance, attentional control, big five personality traits, and performance in both high and low prevalence search tasks.
vWMC, vigilance, attentional control, high prevalence visual search performance, and level of introversion were all significant predictors of low prevalence search accuracy, and together account for more than 50% of the variance in search performance.
"Malaria is a disease that can take full advantage of any lapse in investment, vigilance and control". In the 1950s, the World Health Organization launched a malaria eradication campaign that used the insecticide DDT to kill mosquitoes in the United States, Europe, Asia and South America.
All affected countries should step up vigilance and control measures to reduce current infestations and lessen the risk of migration and spring breeding.
Different methods were used in this study to assess drowsiness and vigilance after controlling for potential confounders.
During recordings vigilance was controlled by visual monitoring of the prominence of the alpha frequency in the posterior parts of the brain and regular verbal contacts were maintained with the subjects.
This pattern suggests differences related to motor coordination and control, vigilance, preparatory motor processes, and the timing of the motor responses.
