요약 | The three-stage model of distraction asserts that when we are presented with salient but task-irrelevant information, our sensory systems first detect the distracting stimulus by way of sensory memory buffers, which is indicated electrophysiologically by the mismatch negativity (MMN). Following detection, attentional resources are involuntarily allocated towards the processing of the distraction, as represented by the P3a. Finally, attentional resources are shifted away from the distracting stimulus and returned to the task-relevant information, as indicated by the reorienting negativity (RON). A great deal of research has focused on this last step in the model, largely centering around defining the mechanisms that modulate and produce the RON. From the previous research it has become clear that both attentional and working memory mechanisms play a role in the production of the RON. Research also suggests that these processes are represented in individual subcomponents of the RON. The current set of studies presented here sought to unpack how these two mechanisms work together to create the RON and allow for successful reorientation. Study 1 investigated this relationship through a comparison of younger adults with older adults, a group known to have difficulties with both working memory and attention, on a modified auditory oddball task. Overall, the older adults were both less accurate and slower to respond to stimuli |
