Using a model based on " modalities ), the researchers suggest that cross-task interference increases proportional to the extent that the two tasks use the same resources within a given dimension : Visual presentation of a read-back task should interfere more with driving than should auditory presentation, because driving itself makes stronger demands on the visual modality than on the auditory.

Although areas of attentional processing such as divided attention, shifting processes, or inhibition are impaired in both Alzheimer s disease and dementia with Lewy bodies ( DLB ), research has shown these deficits to be more prominent in DLB patients than AD patients, coinciding with impaired selective attention, particularly in the visual modality, or their ability to selectively allocate attention to specific stimuli.

In his own studies Rusalov recorded EEGs and measured evoked potentials, absolute thresholds in visual, auditory, and tactile modalities, strength of excitation in auditory and visual modalities, mobility in auditory and visual modalities, problem solving in deterministic and probabilistic conditions, the speed of problem solving using a variety of tests on intelligence, time spent attempting unsolvable problems and the number of times that a subject gave up while attempting to solve a task.

Vladimir Rusalov, who continued the line in research in the Laboratory of Differential Psychophysiology ( Institute of Psychology of Russian Academy of Sciences ) started by Nebylitsyn and Teplov, recorded EEGs and measured evoked potential, absolute threshold in visual, auditory, and tactile modalities, strength of excitation and mobility in auditory and visual modalities, problem solving in deterministic and probabilistic conditions, endurance in solving the tasks, and the speed of solving a variety of tests.
