Sharing the spotlight: Uncovering common attentional dynamics across species

Effect of task difficulty on state transitions.
Around the time of a state transition (at trial 0) from slow to fast (top row) or fast to slow (bottom row), the difficulty level of trials (black line) was not significantly different (except in three places) from the average difficulty (dotted line). The grey band shows the range of 1000 shuffled controls (see Methods). This indicates that the transitions between speed states are likely internally generated, as opposed to externally triggered, in all three species.
