Using a high-temporal-resolution behavioral paradigm and electroencephalography combined with the temporal response function approach, the researchers found that both visible and invisible cues induced rhythmic behavioral sampling and reset connectivity between the frontal and right occipito-parietal regions, indicating that attention samples rhythmically regardless of cue awareness.
Recently, a study published in PLOS Biology reveals an even subtler form of synchronization: our eyes blink in time with musical rhythms, entirely without conscious effort.
The two studies systematically revealed the characteristics and mechanisms of empathy in daily life among individuals across the schizophrenia spectrum.
