Multisensory aspects of the spatial cuing of driver attentionHo, Cristy January 2006 (has links)
The primary goal of the empirical research outlined in this thesis was to examine a number of the factors contributing to the design of more ergonomic multisensory warning signals, that is, signals that elicit efficient and effective responses from interface operators under demanding conditions. To achieve this goal, a series of experiments was conducted in order to examine the nature and consequences of the crossmodal links inherent in spatial attention between various different sensory modalities, such as audition, vision, and touch, in an applied setting. In particular, a laboratory-based simulated driving task was used to investigate the effectiveness of various different auditory and vibrotactile cues in orienting a driver's attention to potential emergency driving events seen through the front windscreen or rearview mirror. The results of the first set of auditory spatial cuing experiments highlighted a significant performance advantage when the target driving events occurred in the cued, rather than the uncued, direction, with the biggest benefits being seen following spatially-predictive auditory or verbal cues. The second set of vibrotactile spatial cuing experiments demonstrated the potential utility of vibrotactile warning signals for presenting spatial information to car drivers, and the results were successfully replicated in a study using a high-fidelity driving simulator. The third set of experiments, incorporating an orthogonal task design, were conducted in order to examine the mechanisms responsible for the advantageous spatial cuing effects reported in the earlier experiments. Taken together, the results demonstrated that while directional congruency between a warning signal and target driving event may be sufficient to facilitate performance due to the priming of the appropriate response, attentional facilitation (i.e., perceptual enhancement) typically requires the co-location of the cue and target within the same functional region of space. In sum, this thesis demonstrates the potential value of approaching the design of effective multisensory warning signals for human operators by studying the information processing mechanisms in the human brain. The findings outlined here add to the literature concerning the brain's differential representation of stimuli presented in peripersonal as opposed to extrapersonal space. Further experimental chapters detail experiments that examined verbal directional cuing, olfactory cuing, and crossmodal interactions in virtual haptic environments.

Functional consequences of top-down anticipatory modulation of primary visual cortexUnknown Date (has links)
It is well established that anticipation of the arrival of an expected stimulus is accompanied by rich ongoing oscillatory neurodynamics, which span and link large areas of cortex. An intriguing possibility is that these dynamic interactions may convey knowledge that is embodied by large-scale neurocognitive networks from higher level regions of multi-model cortex to lower level primary sensory areas. In the current study, using autoregressive spectral analysis, we establish that during the anticipatory phase of a visual discrimination task there are rich patterns of coherent interaction between various levels of the ventral visual hierarchy across the frequency spectrum of 8 - 90 Hz. Using spectral Granger causality we determined that a subset of these interactions carry beta frequency (14 - 30 Hz) top-down influences from higher level visual regions V4 and TEO to primary visual cortex. We investigated the functional significance of these top-down interactions by correlating the magnitude of the anticipatory signals with the amplitude of the visual evoked potential that was elicited by stimulus processing. We found that in one third of the extrastriate-striate pairs, tested in three monkeys, the amplitude of the visual evoked response is well predicted by the magnitude of pre-stimulus coherent top-down anticipatory influences. To investigate the dynamics of the coherent and topdown Granger causal interactions, we analyzed the relationship between coherence and top-down Granger causality with stimulus onset asynchrony. This analysis revealed that in an abundance of cases the magnitudes of the coherent interactions and top-down directional influences scaled with the length of time that had elapsed before stimulus onset. / Together these results reveal a complex network of coherent and top-down directional interactions that predict the amplitude of early components of the visual evoked potential in primary visual cortex and vary in strength on the basis of the length of the stimulus onset. / by Craig G.
