▼ Previous research using the dual-task paradigm to assess the time course of attention has been conducted with many sport-specific movements, such as a tennis serve, a volleyball set, a horseshoe pitch, and a basketball free-throw. However, this line of research has not been applied to a golf putting stroke which differs from previous sport skills because it requires that participants strike the ball with a club rather than propelling it directly from their hands. In the current study, a dual-task paradigm was used to investigate the time course of attention during two golf putts: one from 6 feet (easy condition) and one from 12 feet (difficult condition). A sample of experienced golfers (N = 20) with a handicap of 17 or less participated in the study. Participants were asked to respond verbally to an auditory tone presented at three probe positions during the two putts. The order of the putts and the presentation of the auditory cue at each probe position were randomized and catch trials were used to prevent anticipatory effects. The first hypothesis of this study stated that the time course of attention would follow a similar pattern for both shots. Specifically, it was hypothesized that attentional demand would be greatest just before the putter contacted the golf ball. The second hypothesis of this study stated that the increased task difficulty of the 12-foot putt would result in greater overall attentional demand during this putt than during the 6-foot putt. The results of a repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) for putting performance indicated no significant differences in the level of performance (p > .05) for probe positions across the short putt. However, a repeated-measures ANOVA for putting performance on the long putt indicated that participants' level of performance changed based on probe position (p < .05). Based on previous research, these findings suggest that the time course of attention cannot be accurately assessed in the long putt; this conclusion is due to a reprioritization of the primary and secondary tasks that is indicated by inconsistency in performance across probe positions. The results of a repeated-measures ANOVA for reaction time during the short putt showed that there were no significant differences in reaction time at each probe position (p > .05), indicating that attentional demand remains constant throughout the putting stroke. The results of a repeated-measures ANOVA for reaction time also indicated that reaction times on the long putt were significantly higher than reaction times for the short putt (p < .05), indicating that the long putt required an overall higher level of attentional demand than the short putt. These findings suggest that experienced golfers demonstrate a constant level of attentional demand throughout the putting stroke on a 6-foot putt. These findings also suggest that experienced golfers were unable to maintain primary task performance on the 12-foot putt and that the 12-foot putt required higher attentional demand than the 6-foot putt as a result… Advisors/Committee Members: Jennifer Etnier (advisor).

▼ Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), once considered a childhood-limited neuropsychiatric condition, is now recognized as often persisting into adolescence and beyond. Recent studies of ADHD and its symptom domains – hyperactivity and inattention – indicate that symptoms can wax and wane over time and follow discrete trajectories characterized by different symptom levels and shapes. However, little is known about symptom trajectories in high-risk groups, such as boys from low socioeconomic backgrounds. Childhood ADHD is associated with cigarette smoking in adolescence, but whether the risk is specific to hyperactivity or inattention or their respective symptom trajectories is not clear. The aims of my dissertation research were to identify trajectories of hyperactivity and inattention symptom scores in a sample of boys from low socioeconomic backgrounds and to assess the associations of those trajectories with cigarette smoking outcomes in late adolescence and young adulthood. In pursuit of those aims, I first conducted a narrative literature review to assess current evidence regarding the persistence of childhood ADHD, hyperactivity and inattention into adolescence, and the associations of persistent ADHD and its symptom domains with the risks of cigarette smoking and nicotine abuse and dependence in adolescence and early adulthood. Data on boys of low socioeconomic status, where available, were summarized. Evidence suggests that nearly 50% of individuals with childhood ADHD or its symptom domains continue to have symptoms in adulthood. Hyperactivity symptom trajectories are likely to decline over time, whereas inattention symptom trajectories are more stable. The sparse literature on the association between ADHD, hyperactivity, and inattention symptom persistence and high symptom score trajectories and smoking outcomes suggests that high inattention symptom score trajectories are associated with earlier onset and higher risk of nicotine abuse or dependence in early adulthood than lower trajectories. Evidence on hyperactivity symptom score trajectories and similar smoking outcomes is inconclusive. Literature on symptom trajectories in low socioeconomic boys is sorely lacking; no study has evaluated the association of symptom score trajectories with smoking outcomes. Second, in a sample of 1,037 boys from low socioeconomic neighborhoods, I derived trajectories of hyperactivity and inattention symptom scores between childhood and mid-adolescence (ages 6-15 years), using teachers’ and mothers’ ratings, separately. I also evaluated risk factors for high symptom score trajectories. Three trajectories were identified for both hyperactivity and inattention symptom scores. Hyperactivity symptom scores generally declined over time (high declining, moderate declining, and low declining), whereas inattention symptom scores remained stable (high stable, moderate stable, and low stable). Most boys had low symptom scores over time (i.e., low declining for hyperactivity or low stable for inattention), but…

▼ Background: Current research indicates clear distinctions between the general population and individuals diagnosed with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), specifically in cognitive processes and physiological brain activity. Stimulant medications have been shown to improve and, in some cases, normalize dysfunction in both these areas. The majority of extant brain imaging literature has included functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in tandem with neuropsychological tests to explore these relationships. However, functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a promising neuroimaging technology that offers some unique features including portability, ecological validity, and the ability to detect brain activity via concentrations of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. Very few studies have used fNIRS as a tool to investigate the impact of medication on adults with ADHD, both in their cognitive functioning and brain hemodynamics. However, there is evidence that this technology may—in addition to providing novel information about cognitive and physiological functioning—actually be better suited to evaluating the ADHD population.Objectives: The present study sought to: 1) compare differences in cognition (using neuropsychological tests) and neurophysiology (using fNIRS) between adults withADHD (when unmedicated) and age-, gender-, and education-matched healthy control(HC) adults, and 2) compare differences in cognition and neurophysiology betweenmedicated and unmedicated states in adults with ADHD. Ultimately, the goal was to investigate the potential application of fNIRS as an assessment tool for both diagnostic(of the physiological underpinnings of the disorder) and monitoring (of the effectiveness of cognition-improving medications) purposes.Participants: Nine individuals aged 18-25 diagnosed with ADHD and nine age-, gender-, and education-matched healthy control participants (HCs).Method: All participants completed two testing sessions. HCs completed both sessions under normal conditions whereas ADHD participants completed one testing session while medicated and the other while unmedicated. Cognitive testing focused on working memory, a domain relevant to ADHD. Testing included 1) a two-subtest WAIS-IV; 2) a Sternberg delayed recognition task (a test of working memory); and 3) a visual n-back task (another working memory test). The latter two tasks were completed while participants were connected to a continuous wave fNIRS system to record cerebral hemodynamic activity during working memory performance. Demographic variables, confirmation of diagnosistic status, medications, and recent daily activities regarding caffeine, alcohol, tobacco, and other behaviors that could impact fNIRS data were recorded.Results: Cognitively, while healthy controls performed better on working memory tasks than ADHD participants, and ADHD participants generally performed better when medicated than unmedicated, neither comparison reached significance. Physiologically, there were no significant differences in PFC… Advisors/Committee Members: Schultheis, Maria T., College of Arts and Sciences.

▼ Over the past thirty years, academic dialogue on the relationships between science and religion within historical, theological and philosophical contexts has flourished, with the importance of this dialogue being positively expressed. In particular, at the intersection of psychology and religion there is a triple relationship between these domains and in this thesis, we bring the Hindu tradition of Classical Yoga into this discourse, aiming for a psychological understanding of the Yogasutra of Patañjali as the primary text of this tradition. With a 'psychology in religion' perspective we identify key psychological concepts in the first six sutra of the text, explicate and explore its psychological dimension, through referencing with other key sutra or aphorisms in the Yogasutra. With a robust methodology consisting of a hermeneutic and phenomenological based close reading of the text and rigorous conceptual analysis, we construct a detailed model of the mind contextualised within the principles and practice of Yoga. We discuss the modifications and states of the mind, the underlying subliminal factors; the nature of embodiment, identity and subjective experience, and the affective and volitional aspects of the individual, as explicated from the text. In Section Three of this thesis we take a dialogical and comparative approach at the intersection of psychology and religion. Csikszentmihalyi has asserted that there is a close resemblance between Yoga and Flow, the latter being developed within the domain of Western Positive Psychology. We carry out a detailed comparative analysis of the phenomenology of Flow and Samadhi presented within a proposed methodology and framework of dimensions of subjectivity and consciousness, to investigate this claim. Clarifying the conceptual differences, establishing parallels and demonstrating common topographical and functional areas in the two phenomena, opens the possibility for an empirical investigation, which we propose. Finally, we point out the contributions of this study and suggest future directions for research in this field.

▼ The human brain is remarkably good at identifying stimuli worthy of attention, and efficiently allocating its limited neural resources. In the context of an attention reorienting task, where subjects are required to process novel and unexpected incoming sensory information and transform them into actions, the goal for the brain is therefore to orient attention to the most task-relevant stimulus so as to facilitate stimulus processing and behavioral outcome. Recent studies suggest that arousal plays a role in modulating attention reorienting, task engagement, and performance optimization. The rising interest and studies notwithstanding, the exact mechanism and function of arousal in attention reorienting still remains largely elusive. The aim of this dissertation is to investigate the interactions between arousal and attention reorienting systems, and the spatiotemporal dynamics of such interactions. Specifically, we simultaneously record pupillometry, electroencephalography (EEG), and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to study the fluctuations of the latent states, while subjects perform an auditory oddball task. The oddball task is used to drive the attention reorienting response, and to control for potential ocular confounds that might be induced with a visual paradigm. With concurrently recorded cross modality data, we explore different aspects of the potential interactions between arousal and attention reorienting systems using various combinations of modality-specific trial-to-trial variabilities. We find baseline pupil-linked arousal is correlated to EEG variability temporally localized at a time after the behavioral response, and spatially linked to intrinsically-driven and executive-function related regions; whereas stimulus-driven pupil-linked arousal is temporally related to EEG variability closer to the stimulus onset, and spatially correlated to task-relevant regions. Taken together, our work in this dissertation uses innovative data acquisition and analysis approaches to provide a novel spatiotemporal mapping of the interactions between arousal and attention reorienting systems. Our findings offer new insight on the mechanism and function of how human orients attention, and how arousal is linked to such seemingly trivial yet fundamentally significant cognitive function.

▼ Three experiments are presented in which I sought to determine the relation between joint attention and the related verbal behavior developmental cusps. Participants in Experiment I were 37 preschool students with and without disabilities with verbal behavior levels ranging from prefoundational to bidirectional cusps. Participants were selected from a convenience sample within a preschool for children with and without disabilities. Measures included the participants’ responses to opportunities for mand joint attention (MJA), responding to joint attention (RJA), initiation of joint attention (IJA), conditioned reinforcement for adult faces (CRF), conditioned reinforcement for adult voices (CRV), generalized matching, generalized imitation (GI), listener literacy (LL), mands, tacts, praise and a conditioned reinforcer, say-do correspondence, self-talk during fantasy play, conversational units (CUs) unidirectional Naming (UniN), bidirectional Naming (BiN), and observational learning (OL) as a listener and speaker. Pearson’s correlations and independent samples t-tests were conducted to determine which cusps were related to joint attention. Furthermore, stepwise multiple regression analyses were utilized to determine the largest significant predictors of joint attention. The results showed strong associations between many of the verbal behavior cusps and joint attention, specifically with conditioned reinforcement for adult faces explaining 27% of the variance in participants’ RJA, and conditioned reinforcement for adult faces combined with a tact repertoire explaining 64% of the variance in participants’ IJA. Experiment II thus investigated the effects of conditioned reinforcement for adult faces on joint attention. Six participants lacking conditioned reinforcement for adult faces and correct RJA began the face conditioning protocol using a delayed multiple probe design. Though no participants successfully completed the face conditioning protocol, subsequent mastery of short-term objectives did not result in an increase in RJA or IJA for any participants. Experiment III was conducted with an additional six participants who had conditioned reinforcement for adult faces, but lacked an independent tact repertoire and IJA. Participants completed 5 phases of an intensive tact intervention (ITI), totaling 125 mastered tacts, using a delayed multiple probe design. Following the intervention, 5 out of 6 participants showed increases in IJA, as well as three-point RJA, demonstrating that conditioning social consequences through ITI may be an effective intervention for increasing joint attention in individuals with the necessary prerequisites. The findings suggest that joint attention is not a cusp, but rather a behavior that emerges as the result of the acquisition of numerous conditioned reinforcers. I propose a separation of joint attention into 4 distinct categories (MJA, two-point RJA, three-point RJA, and IJA) based on a behavioral analysis of social consequences.

Thesis Ph. D. Michigan State University. Psychology 2019.

Sleep deprivation impairs lower-level cognition such as vigilant attention. However, the effect of sleep deprivation on higher-order cognition, such as problem solving or working memory, is not well understood. One prominent theory, referred to as the attention-mediated theory, posits that deficits in higher-order cognition can be entirely attributable to deficits in vigilant attention, as attention is a global process required for nearly all cognitive tasks. Across four of the largest sleep deprivation studies ever conducted, we investigated the effect of sleep deprivation on vigilant attention and a broadly relevant component of higher-order cognition called placekeeping. Placekeeping is important for problem solving and linear thinking, even more so than working memory capacity. In the evening, participants completed UNRAVEL, a measure of placekeeping ability and memory maintenance, and the Psychomotor Vigilance Task (PVT), a standard measure of vigilant attention, as a baseline assessment of performance. Participants were then randomly assigned to sleep at home for the night or to remain awake in the laboratory overnight. In the morning, all participants completed UNRAVEL and PVT again. In Experiment 1, we show that vigilant attention cannot fully account for deficits in placekeeping or memory maintenance after sleep deprivation. In Experiment 2, we show that the ability to manage proactive interference, a potentially important process of memory maintenance, did not show a significant deficit due to sleep deprivation. Experiments 3 and 4 investigate two interventions, caffeine and brief naps, and the extent to which they mitigate cognitive deficits due to sleep deprivation. Caffeine selectively benefitted vigilant attention but had no effect on placekeeping for the majority of participants. A brief nap during a period of sleep deprivation did not enhance vigilant attention or placekeeping performance; however, different aspects of sleep architecture during the naps were related to performance on the two tasks. Collectively, findings across the four studies do not support the attention-mediated theory; vigilant attention does not completely underlie deficits in placekeeping or memory maintenance after sleep deprivation. Instead, sleep deprivation appears to directly impair placekeeping and memory maintenance and may cause domain-specific deficits to cognition.

Introduction – Literature review: Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) – Chiropractic care for paediatric and adolescent Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: a systematic review – Methodology of a randomised controlled trial of net therapy for paediatric AD/HD – Results of a randomised controlled trial of NET therapy for paediatric AD/HD – Discussion of the RCT results of NET therapy for paediatric AD/HD.

This thesis is an investigation of chiropractic management for paediatric Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD). The aim of this thesis was to answer two questions: Q1: Does chiropractic care have a role to play in the management of paediatric AD/HD? and Q2: Does the emotional component of the Neuro Emotional Technique (NET) [a technique used by some chiropractors] have a role to play in the management of paediatric AD/HD? Traditionally AD/HD is managed by paediatricians, developmental and behavourial health specialists, clinical psychologists and allied health professionals. However, as complementary and alternative medicine gains popularity, more parents seek alternative care for their children diagnosed with AD/HD. – A review of the AD/HD literature was conducted in order to update current understanding on the subject matter. Furthermore, a systematic review of the chiropractic literature was undertaken in order to construct a thorough profile of chiropractic care for paediatric AD/HD to answer the first research question. This systematic review found a paucity of published articles in the area and conclusions drawn that there was insufficient evidence to support the efficacy of chiropractic care for paediatric AD/HD. As a result of these findings, a unique pilot study in the form of a randomised controlled trial (RCT) was conducted on the biopsychosocial principles of NET, following the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) checklist. This RCT was designed and undertaken in order to answer the second research question of whether the emotional component of NET can affect outcomes in paediatric AD/HD by decreasing the symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity. – This study was a multi-centre study with four chiropractors (certified in NET) providing interventions for sixty-nine children. The children underwent an intense one-month management program of two sessions per week followed by another six sessions administered monthly. The parents of the participants and their teachers were the informants used throughout the study reporting on the children's behaviours, in two different contexts. The Conners' Parent and Teacher Rating Scales (CPRS-R:L and CTRS-R:L) were used as the outcome measures for this study. The results were interesting but not unusual, according to the literature.

Chapter 1. Introduction to the thesis – Chapter 2. The first paper – Chapter 3. The second paper – Chapter 4. The third paper – Chpater 5. Thesis conclusion.

In the marketplace, advertising clutter refers to the high volume of advertising consumers are exposed to daily. This high quantity of advertisements has negative effects on unfamiliar brands which always face difficulties competing with other more familiar brands from the same product category. This thesis shows that unfamiliar brands have to work harder to overcome advertising clutter. Many academic researchers and marketers find that advertising creativity is an important strategic tool that should be considered when trying to attract consumer attention, increase advertisement and brand liking, and improve advertisement and brand memory. Thus, the thesis investigates “does advertising creativity overcome clutter?” and measuring that effects on attention, affect, and memory.

This thesis includes one theoretical and two experimental papers to address the effects of advertising creativity on brand familiarity and competitive advertising interference. It also uses eye-tracking techniques to measure attention. The experiments were designed as realistic experiments, one session time, using a within subjects design. Participants were exposed to a digital magazine which was designed into the eye-tracking software. The ads in this magazine included 24 advertisements which were manipulated to be attributed to both familiar and unfamiliar brands. Of these, eight were highly creative advertisements which won major advertising creativity competitions. Eight control and eight interference advertisements were also selected. A pre-test identified familiar and unfamiliar brands.

The data were analysed by using GLM models for attention and affect and also logistic regression models for memory. Four dependent variables used to measure attention, which are total fixation duration toward the advertisement, total fixation duration toward brands, non-fixation duration toward the advertisement, and non- fixation duration toward brands. Memory measures were advertisement recall, brand recall, advertisement recognition, and brand recognition.

The results show that advertising creativity for familiar brands has a negative influence on brand affect and brand recognition. However, advertising creativity enhances visual attention for the advertisements of unfamiliar brands, and it also improves affect toward the ad, affect toward the brand and brand recognition for most situations. In addition, brand familiarity moderates the effect of creativity on ad recognition. Creativity enhanced ad recognition more for unfamiliar brands than familiar brands. And there were no significant effects of creativity on either ad or brand recall.

The results also show that attention has a strong relationship with affect and memory. And attention itself was influenced by proactive competitive interference. However, competitive…

Thesis Ph. D. Michigan State University. Psychology 2019.

Although the separate effects of feature- and space-based attention are relatively well established, the conjoint effects of attending to both a location and a feature are under-investigated. I analyzed the literature and extracted three approaches that explain such conjoint effects, namely the independence, sensory gating, and boosting approaches. The three approaches have substantial supports and shortcomings, and the current study will investigate which of the three approaches provide the best prediction of behavioral performance. I conducted two experiments to investigate whether the interplay between feature- and space-based attention varied as a function of the elapsed time between the cue and the target onset. A space-feature combination cue directed attention to a target on which participants discriminated small changes in color saturation. Both the spatial and feature cues were partially valid, making it possible to assess the cueing effect. The time difference between the cue and the saturation change onsets was manipulated in fine steps. Experiment 1 showed that space- and feature-based attention had an interactive effect on performance, such that feature-based attention did not influence performance outside the focus of space-based attention regardless of the temporal asynchrony between the cue and target onset. Experiment 2 was conducted to determine which of the three approaches provided the best account for the interaction pattern by adding a spatially neutral condition. It showed that feature- and space-based attention influenced performance, yet feature-based attention could not influence the performance outside the focus of spatial attention regardless of the temporal asynchrony between the cue and target onset. Moreover, the effectiveness of feature-based attention was equivalent at the spatially valid and neutral locations. In conclusion, the findings resemble with the predictions of the sensory gating approach. While feature-based attention could operate at the attended location or under diffused spatial attention equally well, its effectiveness diminished outside the focus of spatial attention. Moreover, the spatial filter imposed on feature-based attention is more permeable than originally proposed by the sensory gating approach. Lastly, feature-based attention does not fully spread to an unattended location regardless of the time difference between the cue and target onsets.

▼ Concentration, or attentional functioning, is an integral aspect of successful sporting performance yet there is not commensurate research into attention in sport. To assist in promoting research and to provide an instrument for applied purposes, a self-report questionnaire measuring attentional tendencies in sport was developed. To lay the ground work, a comprehensive review of the Test of Attentional and Interpersonal Style (TAIS - Nideffer, 1976; the major instrument used to assess attentional style in sport) was conducted. The clear conclusion was that the TAIS generally lacks external validity. A study examining the internal validity of the TAIS using two samples of21 0 psychology students in a cross-validation design failed to support the TAIS measurement model. A number of items failed to load satisfactorily (<0.30) in a Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). The most damaging outcome was that 44% of items correlated better with a non-target subscale, indicating poor discriminant validity. Using the same samples, the TAIS was restructured in a cross-validation design producing a three factor model measuring broad attention, narrow attention, and poor focus, which proved to be the 'best' model. The possibility of measuring at least three aspects of attention provided the stimulus for the new test. The new test (Attention and Concentration Tendencies Survey - ACTS) was designed to measure nine dimensions: broad and narrow attention, alertness, flexibility, task-relevant attention, internal and external attention, distractibility, and flow concentration. Two hundred and eighty-six items designed specifically for sport were written to assess these dimensions. The new test went through successive stages of refinement involving content, structural, and external validation. To provide content validation, seven experts in Sport Psychology independently made item-scale ratings that were converted to factor scores indicating each item's relationship with each dimension. These factor scores were then used to develop "core" scales (i.e., the best 15 items on each scale). Empirical validation was then conducted to develop the scales based on these nine' core' scales. Data from an initial sample of university athletes (n= 100) was used to add items to the "core" scales where there was a sufficient relationship with the target 'core' scale, and demonstrated discriminant validity. These provisional scales (1=210) were cross-validated on a second sample of university athletes (n=50), resulting in an insufficient number of items representing the narrow attention and flow concentration scales. The narrow attention scale items were combined with task-relevant attention items and the flow concentration items were re-distributed to other scales. This reassignment was conducted on the initial sample of 100 and cross-validated in the second sample. After this…

A component score approach to investigating the role of executive control in collaborative recall – Chapter 5. General discussion – Chapter 6. Summary and future work – References – Appendices.

The purpose of this PhD program of research was to investigate the role of executive control in collaborative recall. While the costs and benefits of collaborative recall have been well-defined, little research has examined how the individuals within collaborative groups affect the outcomes. I hypothesized that executive control would influence collaborative recall because executive control is implicated in modulating individuals’ susceptibility to disruption and their ability to inhibit—two processes which are posited to contribute to collaborative costs.

In a series of three experiments I investigated how the abilities that people brought into collaboration influenced collaborative recall as well as subsequent, postcollaborative recall. That is, how did individual differences in executive control influence: What people brought in to collaboration? How they performed in collaboration? and What they took away from collaboration? I examined executive control ability at the individual level as well as the group level. At the group level, I investigated both the average ability of group members as well as the difference between group members’ abilities.

In Experiment 1 I found that neither individual ability nor group-level ability influenced collaborative recall. However, the difference in ability between group members predicted attenuated post-collaborative benefits. Lower ability individuals who had collaborated in groups with partners whose abilities were much higher than their own tended to forget previously remembered information.

In Experiment 2 I pre-screened individuals and composed groups based on differing ability compositions. While I did not replicate results from Experiment 1, I did observe the standard costs and benefits of collaboration where people who collaborated were disrupted during collaboration, but recalled more information and became more accurate on subsequent individual recall compared to people who did not collaborate.

In Experiment 3 I used a battery of cognitive tasks to derive an executive control component score intended to assess latent ability. I found a similar pattern of forgetting to Experiment 1, such that the difference between group members’ abilities predicted forgetting for the lower ability partners. This was further qualified by lower recognition performance for the lower ability partners, which suggested an inhibitory process was responsible.

Overall, the findings from my PhD research suggest that collaborative recall does not influence all collaborators in the…
