The time course of alerting effect over orienting in the attention network test
TLDR
It is suggested that alerting improves rather than accelerates orienting effects, a result that agrees with data from neuropsychological rehabilitation of parietal patients with spatial bias.
Efficiency and interactions of alerting, orienting and executive networks: the impact of imperative stimulus type.
Modulations among the alerting, orienting and executive control networks
TLDR
Results were replicated in a third experiment, proving the effects to be stable over time, participants and experimental context, and to be potentially important as a tool for neuropsychological assessment.
Phasic alertness can modulate executive control by enhancing global processing of visual stimuli
Hemispheric modulations of the attentional networks
Mixing measures: testing an assumption of the attention network test
TLDR
Use of ANOVAs and correlation procedures found that intranetwork correlations were surprisingly low, and Cue X Flanker interactions were found within alerting, orienting, and executive control measures.
Testing the behavioral interaction and integration of attentional networks
Working together to orient faster: The combined effects of alerting and orienting networks on pupillary responses at 8 months of age
Alertness and cognitive control: Testing the spatial grouping hypothesis
TLDR
The results suggest that spatial grouping is not a viable mechanism for explaining the alerting–congruency interaction in the flanker task, helping to prune the space of theoretical possibilities for linking alertness to cognitive control.

TLDR
It is suggested that alerting modulates the allocation of attention by prioritizing processing of spatial information presented in the visual field, which can be adaptive under many circumstances, but it comes at a cost.

Testing the Efficiency and Independence of Attentional Networks
TLDR
A study with 40 normal adult subjects indicates that the ANT produces reliable single subject estimates of alerting, orienting, and executive function, and further suggests that the efficiencies of these three networks are uncorrelated.
