Visual detection and discrimination thresholds are often measured using adaptive
staircases, and most studies use transformed (or weighted) up/down methods with fixed step …

The visual system uses parallel pathways to process information. However, an ongoing
debate centers on the extent to which the pathways from the retina, via the Lateral …

Frith and Happé (Frith, U., & Happé, F.(1994). Autism: Beyond theory of mind. Cognition, 50,
115–132) argue that individuals with autism exhibit 'weak central coherence': an inability to …

We investigated global motion processing in a group of adult amblyopes using a method
that allows us to factor out any influence of the known contrast sensitivity deficit. We show …

We aimed to address two issues: first, to describe how the perception of motion differs in
elderly observers as compared to younger ones; and, second, to see if these changes in …

The spatio-temporal receptive fields (RFs) of cells in the macaque monkey lateral geniculate
nucleus (LGN) and striate cortex (V1) have been examined and two distinct sub-populations …

Do amblyopes demonstrate general irregularities in processes of global image integration?
Or are these anomalies stimulus specific? To address these questions we employed directly …

Objective: The goal of this study was to provide a better understanding of driver behavior in
fog. Background: Impaired perception of changes in headway is hypothesized to be one of …

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the effect of human magnocellular (M)-
pathway disruption on global motion perception. Coherence thresholds for global motion …

It is clear that the initial analysis of visual motion takes place in the striate cortex, where
directionally selective cells are found that respond to local motion in one direction but not in …
