Features: This book is a systematically organized academic monograph that focuses on research in China. It is suitable for undergraduate students, master's and doctoral students, researchers, teachers, and experimental staff in psychology, physiology, medicine, cognitive science, neuroscience, and other related life science fields who are interested in attention. Based on Dr. Luo Yuejia's doctoral dissertation "Event-Related Potentials in Selective Attention Across Sensory Pathways," the book systematically introduces the concept of attention, cognitive theories, and the anatomical and physiological foundations of attention. It elaborates on the brain mechanisms of attention using cognitive neuroscience methods from the perspectives of auditory pathways, visual pathways, and audiovisual cross-pathways, as well as provides preliminary insights and explorations into consciousness. The book not only summarizes the author's many years of research on attention but also aims to reflect the latest developments in the international field of cognitive neuroscience.
