Neuroimaging correlates of auditory attention task and variability in eye movement. Orange: across all trials, attentive listening was associated with activation of a widespread auditory network (superior temporal gyri (STG) and sulci (STS) bilaterally) as well as the dorsal attention network [DAN; superior parietal lobes (SPL), frontal eye fields (FEF)] and middle frontal gyri (MFG) bilaterally. However, only the SPL and FEF were associated with individual differences in eye movement control. Blue: subjects that displayed the largest left-right gaze position bias following spatial auditory cues had greater activation of the SPL during the attentive listening periods. Green: subjects that displayed the largest reduction in saccade rate during listening trials compared to rest had greater activation of the FEF and left posterior temporal lobe during the cue period that preceded each trial. Colorbars show cluster-corrected z-scores.
