Cortland Attention Lab

· Currently, we are studying the impact of daily attention-related tasks on specific attention processes and attention-related brain activity. This study is being conducted in collaboration with the Cortland Psychophysiology Lab (PI: Collings).

· We are also conducting a study examining the impact of hands-free cell phone conversations on visual orienting and selective attention (Co-PIs: White & Collings).

 

 

· From 2007 to 2008, we conducted a series of experiments designed to test our peripheral alerting hypothesis (Collings, Nelson, McClarren, & Campi, 2009) and O’Donnell & Pratt’s Attentional Momentum Hypothesis (PI: Collings)

· From 2005 to 2007, we examined the relations between social judgments and specific attention mechanisms among university students (Co-PIs: Eaton & Collings).

· From 2004 to 2005, we conducted a pilot study examining the use of intensive computer gaming to improve visual orienting and vigilance among university students (PI: Collings).

· In 2004, we conducted a pilot study  of specific vigilance mechanisms related to visual orienting among a children ages 3 to 9, with a modified covert visual orienting task (PI: Collings).

· From 2002 to 2004 we examined specific vigilance mechanisms related to visual orienting among university students (PI: Collings).

 

 

· In 2008, we conducted a qualitative study utilizing surveys and interviews to explore the experience of college students with disabilities (co-PIs: Bentley & Collings).

· From 2003 to 2004, we collaborated with the Learning Disabilities Project with the Institute on Disability Studies at SUNY Cortland (Co-PI: Collings & Hunt).
