Infants at 7 months of age who go on to develop autism are slower to reorient their gaze and attention from one object to another when compared to 7-month-olds who do not develop autism, and this behavioral pattern is in part explained by atypical brain circuits.
New research shows visual attention increases the efficiency of signaling into the cerebral cortex.
A new study challenges current understanding of how visual attention is focused, as well as the roles of long and short term memory.

Playing video games can cause long-term changes in the brain and lead to improvements in temporal visual selective attention.
Study sheds new light on the roles of social interactions and cultural diversity in the development of attention.
