Outline of Final Research Achievements

We studied neural correlates of attention to time and space by using the methods of psychophysics and functional MRI. We recruited 10 healthy subjects, 5 Parkinson's disease patients and 7 brain tumor patients. Psychophysics examination revealed bilateral interference of time domain to space domain and vice versa. The result suggests that, with high load of attention to time and spaced, the attention resource reaches limit and becomes compromised. Experiments with brain tumor patients suggested that parietal lesion enhances time-space interference. Functional imaging study suggested parietal activation during spatial task and cerebellar activation during temporal task.
