An integrative model for neural dynamics of feature selection in visual object processing: An explorative study.

Objects and features represent fundamental selection units of visual attention. The associated mechanisms, however, had been mostly explored in isolation. Not least for this reason, apparently contradictory theories persist about feature selection in visual object processing.

Dissonance in Music Impairs Spatial Gait Parameters in Patients with Parkinson's Disease.

Background: It is known that music influences gait parameters in Parkinson's disease (PD). However, it remains unclear whether this effect is merely due to temporal aspects of music (rhythm and tempo) or other musical parameters.

Objective: To examine the influence of pleasant and unpleasant music on spatiotemporal gait parameters in PD, while controlling for rhythmic aspects of the musical signal.
