Frontal lesions and sustained attention
Abstract
Neurological patients were presented with a succession of 2-11 stimuli which they were required to count, reporting the number in the series when it finished. The stimuli were binaural clicks, or pulses on the right or on the left index finger. Regardless of stimulus modality or lateralization, patients with lesions involving the right frontal lobe were impaired when the presentation rate was 1/sec. There was no corresponding impairment when the presentation rate was increased to 7/sec. It is argued that at slow rates when the task was monotonous patients with right-frontal lesions were less able than others to sustain attention voluntarily.

Depending on task demands, the PFC facilitates sustained attention on a single task or manages rapid shifts in attention to accomplish multiple sequential tasks.
“Depending on task demands, the PFC facilitates sustained attention on a single task (Wilkins et al., 1987) or manages rapid shifts in attention to accomplish multiple sequential tasks (Robbins, 2007).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
