Keyword: Attention and Distraction

Abstract: Across species, brain–body dynamics align: human verbal searches may mirror the local-to-global (clustering-switching) pattern in animal foraging. One hundred adults will complete online verbal-fluency tasks while webcam eye-tracking captures attentional control. We expect that attention metrics will predict verbal capacity and cognitive flexibility, revealing executive–memory coupling and informing digital assessments.
