The frontal cortex and parietal cortex--in the front and back of the brain, respectively--appear to light up when subjects focus on certain signals. Then, as the new stimuli are processed, the visual cortex in the lower rear of the brain moves into action. The finding may help researchers better understand attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and even schizophrenia...
