Payne L, Sekuler R.
PMID: 25530685
Curr Dir Psychol Sci. 2014 Jun;23(3):171-177. doi: 10.1177/0963721414529145.

Selective attention is often thought to entail an enhancement of some task-relevant stimulus or attribute. We discuss the perspective that ignoring irrelevant, distracting information plays a complementary role in information processing. Cortical oscillations within the alpha (8-14 Hz) frequency...
