Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Michael T Pastorino"
- Michael T Pastorino's research primarily focuses on the intersection of cognitive processes and hunger, particularly how hunger influences attentional mechanisms related to food-related stimuli.
- In his 2010 study published in Appetite, he investigated the effects of hunger on attentional capture by using the emotional blink of attention paradigm to analyze how visual food cues compete for attention.
- The findings suggest that hunger can modulate cognitive processes, revealing that individuals in a hungry state exhibit different attentional biases towards food-related cues compared to when they are satiated.
