It has been fifty years since Levelt's monograph On Binocular Rivalry (1965) was published,
but its four propositions that describe the relation between stimulus strength and the …

Substantial experimental, theoretical, and computational insights into sensory processing
have been derived from the phenomena of perceptual multistability—when two or more …

When sensory input allows for multiple, competing perceptual interpretations, observers'
perception can fluctuate over time, which is called bistable perception. Imaging studies in …

Neuroplasticity is a fundamental property of the develo** mammalian visual system, with
residual potential in adult human cortex [1]. A short period of abnormal visual experience …

An imbalance between cortical excitation and inhibition is a central component of many
models of autistic neurobiology. We tested a potential behavioral footprint of this proposed …

Key points Short‐term monocular deprivation in adult humans produces a perceptual boost
of the deprived eye reflecting homeostatic plasticity. Visual evoked potentials (VEPs) to …

Binocular rivalry and cross-orientation suppression are well-studied forms of competition in
visual cortex, but models of these two types of competition are in tension with one another …

Openness to experience is characterised by flexible and inclusive cognition. Here we
investigated whether this extends to basic visual perception, such that open people combine …

Binocular rivalry is a classic experimental tool to probe the neural machinery of perceptual
awareness. During rivalry, perception alternates between the two eyes, and the ebb and …

During development, within a specific temporal window called the critical period, the
mammalian visual cortex is highly plastic and literally shaped by visual experience; to what …
