Attentional Processes in Human Associative Learning

该项目将确定学习过程中刺激处理变化的机制，并将阐明学习和注意力之间的关系，这些因素对我们理解人类认知和行为至关重要。该项目将有助于建立对注意力变化和注意力与学习的神经基础的知情理解。许多职业都涉及对注意力的不断竞争，通常在严格的时间限制下。更好地理解注意力过程是如何随着学习而变化的，将有利于基于技能的培训实践，特别是在高压职业中。

This project will identify the mechanisms responsible for changes in stimulus processing during learning and will shed light on the relationship between learning and attention, factors which are crucial to our understanding of human cognition and behaviour. The project will help to build an informed understanding of attentional change and the neural basis for attention and learning. Many professions involve constantly competing demands on attention, often under strict time constraints. A better understanding of how attentional processes change with learning will benefit skill-based training practices, particularly in high-pressure occupations.
