A Functional Architecture of the Brain for Vision (FAB4V)

Date du début: 1 juil. 2014, Date de fin: 30 juin 2019,

"We are visual animals. Seeing is our prime means for probing the outside world. Although vision appears effortless, we dedicate about a quarter of our most precious organ to this most prominent of all senses. The primary objective of this research programme is to develop a rigorous new view on how the human brain process visual information. This endeavour is based on two concepts: the methodologi ...

Speeded decision-making in the basal ganglia: An integrative model-based approach (SPEED)

Date du début: 1 févr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2018,

"Speeded decision-making is essential for adaptive behavior in an impatient world. Fight or flight, stop or go, left or right, shoot or pass, peanut butter or jelly: our environment constantly demands decisions. Choosing prematurely can result in death, traffic accidents, collisions, lost games, and a distasteful sandwich -- asimilar fate awaits those who ponder over their decisions for too long. ...

Schemata Violation Increases Creative Cognition: the When and How (CREA.TA)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2014, Date de fin: 31 août 2017,

"One of the key outcomes of the recent economic and political transformations in Europe is that people are more and more mobile: they move countries, change professions and challenge old power relations. In doing so, they increase the diversity and complexity of social structures to new heights. For instance, more often we see women embracing positions of power (e.g., Angela Merkel, the female cha ...

Bayes or Bust: Sensible Hypothesis Tests for Social Scientists (BAYES OR BUST!)

Date du début: 1 mai 2012, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2017,

"The goal of this proposal is to develop and promote Bayesian hypothesis tests for social scientists. By and large, social scientists have ignored the Bayesian revolution in statistics, and, consequently, most social scientists still assess the veracity of experimental effects using the same methodology that was used by their advisors and the advisors before them. This state of affairs is undesira ...

The Human Brain Project (HBP)

Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2016,

Understanding the human brain is one of the greatest challenges facing 21st century science. If we can rise to the challenge, we can gain profound insights into what makes us human, develop new treatments for brain diseases and build revolutionary new computing technologies. Today, for the first time, modern ICT has brought these goals within sight. The goal of the Human Brain Project, part of the ...

Testing the multi-component model of human cognitive abilities (TEMCOM)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2012, Date de fin: 31 août 2014,

"What causes people to differ in their mental abilities? The most replicated result in the study of individual differences is that people who perform better on one kind of mental ability test tend to perform better on other kinds of tests as well. After more than a century of research there is still no scientific consensus on the reasons of this phenomenon.The existence of a general mental ability ...

"When Diversity Helps or Hurts Creative Cognition: Effects of Counter-stereotypicality, Information Processing Motivation, and Regulatory Closure" (CREA.DIV)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2012, Date de fin: 31 août 2014,

"Social and cultural diversity is a critical issue facing Europe today, and understanding how it operates is important to the wellbeing of our communities. Psychological science has contributed greatly to the understanding of how diversity impacts both intergroup and interpersonal relations. There is reason to suspect, however, that diversity can also improve creativity and innovation. With creati ...

A NEW DEFINITION OF CONSCIOUSNESS (DEFCON1)

Date du début: 1 mars 2009, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2014,

The study of consciousness is considered one of the final frontiers in science. After centuries of introspection, philosophy, and psychology it is thought that neuroscience will now answer the age-old questions like who is conscious, when, and what of. This will take more, however, than the current approach of finding the neural correlate of consciousness (NCC). We need a new science of consciou ...

Arousal, cortical signal-to-noise, and the ability to sustain attention (Alert and Focused)

Date du début: 1 mai 2010, Date de fin: 20 août 2013,

Sustained attention or the ability to maintain an alert, goal-directed focus is critical for many levels of human behavior. Failures of sustained attention occur when there is a transient decrease in endogenous control of behavior leaving one prone to goal-neglect and distraction by irrelevant stimuli. Frequent lapses in sustained attention are a core feature of performance in the elderly, sleep-d ...
