The cholinergic system is involved in the modulation of both bottom-up and top-down attentional control. Top-down attention engages multiple executive control processes, but few studies have investigated whether all or selective elements functions are modulated by system. To investigate acute effects pro-cholinergic donepezil young, healthy volunteers on distinct components we conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled, independent-groups design study including 42 young male participants...
