Biological effects of attention.
A. Average SAI, expressed as a % of the unconditioned mean at. T1. Shown is the mean with whiskers spanning 1.5Χ the interquartile range. B. Average LAI, expressed as a % of the unconditioned mean. Shown is the mean with whiskers spanning 1.5Χ the interquartile range LAI: long latency afferent inhibition, NDA: non-directed attend, NS: no stimulation, SAI: short latency afferent inhibition, TA: tactile attend, VA: visual attend.
