Sustaining attention is highly demanding and can falter if there is a shift in willingness to exert effort. Motivated attentional performance and effort preference were tracked in relation to increasing time-on-task (Experiment 1) and sleep deprivation (Experiment 2). Performance decrement with time-on-task was attenuated with reward, while preference to deploy effort decreased with longer task duration. Sleep deprivation, accentuated performance decline with time-on-task, and was accompanied by greater effort-discounting. Motivated attention performance was associated with higher fronto-parietal activation, in both normal and sleep deprived conditions. However, after sleep deprivation modulation of activation by reward was reduced in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and left anterior insula (aIns). Together, these results depict how motivational decline affects performance when one gets tired after sustained task performance and/or sleep deprivation.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
