Division of attention and the decision theory of signal detection

Diversion of attention from a stimulus produces an effect resembling a reduction in its intensity, but under suitable conditions, the ignored event may still produce a response from an observer.

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in prefrontal layer VI neurons play an essential role in focusing attention, and understanding their cellular mechanisms and plasticity may help enhance attention in normal and disordered prefrontal cortex.
