## Abstract Recent theories of selective attention assume that the more attention is required by a task, the earlier are irrelevant stimuli filtered during perceptual processing. Previous functional MRI studies have demonstrated that primary visual cortex (V1) activation by peripheral distractors i

In a previous study using positron emission tomography (PET), we demonstrated that focused attention to a location in the visual field produced increased regional cerebral blood flow in the fusiform gyrus contralateral to the attended hemifield (Heinze et al. [1994]: Nature 372:543). We related thes
## Abstract We sought to identify the neural substrates underlying perceptual grouping, and examined whether the groupingβrelated neural activities are modulated by task relevance and attention by recording highβdensity eventβrelated potentials (ERPs). Participants were presented with stimulus arra
