It is unknown whether facilitation and inhibition of stimulus processing represent one or two mechanisms in auditory attention. We performed electrophysiological experiments in humans to address these two competing hypothesis. Participants performed an attention task under low or high memory load. Facilitation and inhibition were measured by recording electrophysiological responses to attended and ignored sounds and comparing them to responses to these same sounds when attention was considered t ...[more]
