The results do not indicate a specific role of parietal cortex in attentional shifting.
Furthermore, they suggest that the attentional blink disrupts a wide range of processes in the visual system.
Current work is focusing on the incorporation of an attentional model into a neural oscillator based model of stream segregation.
Furthermore, an attentional process is synchronized with one group of oscillators to signify which group is to be considered the attentional foreground.
In Rothbart's view, what she calls the attentional system allows the child to regulate his or her outward behavior as well as internal reactions to stimuli.
