The effect of attention on neural adaptation. a Schematic of the visual distraction task performed to divert the attention of subjects from the noisy speech task. b Subjects’ behavioral response accuracy in response to the contextual questions from speech stories in two conditions of Distracted (Black) and Attended (orange) (mean ± s.e.m., Ndistracted = 48, Nattended = 96, ***Yate’s corrected chi-square test, p < 0.01). c, d Comparison of adaptation patterns and adaptation indices in response to the noisy speech task for the two conditions of Distracted and Attended (mean ± s.e.m. across electrodes, N = 37)
