Visual processing relies on the identification of both local and global features of visual
stimuli. While well investigated at the behavioral level, the underlying brain mechanisms are …

When seeing a visual image, humans prioritize the perception of global features, which is
followed by the assessment of the local ones. This global precedence has been investigated …

Holistic processing has been shown with both faces and words, but it is unclear how similar
their underlying mechanisms are. In this study attention to global and local features was …

To construct a coherent multi-modal percept, vertebrate brains extract low-level features
(such as spatial and temporal frequencies) from incoming sensory signals. However …

Real-world scene perception unfolds remarkably quickly, yet the underlying visual
processes are poorly understood. Space-centered theory maintains that a scene's spatial …

This study investigated age and gender differences in global-local processing (the
perception of parts forming a whole) in middle childhood. While there is a consensus on a …

Background: Visuo-perceptual and visuo-attentional disorders, such as global processing
deficit and simultanagnosia, are not routinely investigated in prodromal forms of typical …

This study examined whether individuals with higher levels of global precedence
recognized thematic relations faster and exhibited a stronger preference for them. In Study 1 …

The global precedence effect (GPE), originally referring to processing hierarchical visual
stimuli composed of letters, is characterised by both global advantage and global …

Whether autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is associated with a global processing deficit
remains controversial. Global integration requires extraction of regularity across various …
