Attentional suppression of activity in the human visual cortex.
We have used fMRI to examine the nature of the changes that occur in the human visual cortex when an observer attends to a particular location in the visual image. Previous studies have shown that the magnitude of the response to a visual stimulus is increased when the observer attends to the stimulus. We show that, in addition, attention to a particular location results in a widespread suppres...
متن کاملVisual field asymmetry in attentional capture.
The present study examined the spatial distribution of involuntary attentional capture over the two visual hemi-fields. A new experiment, and an analysis of three previous experiments showed that distractors in the left visual field that matched a sought-for target in color produced a much larger capture effect than identical distractors in the right visual field, revealing a visual field asymm...
متن کاملBlur perception throughout the visual field in myopia and emmetropia
We evaluated the ability of emmetropic and myopic observers to detect and discriminate blur across the retina under monocular or binocular viewing conditions. We recruited 39 young (23-30 years) healthy adults (n = 19 myopes) with best-corrected visual acuity 0.0 LogMAR (20/20) or better in each eye and no binocular or accommodative dysfunction. Monocular and binocular blur discrimination thres...
متن کاملIsoluminance and chromatic motion perception throughout the visual field
Isoluminance and chromatic motion perception for red/green gratings were measured throughout an 80 deg visual field. Generally, the red/green isoluminance values changed with increasing eccentricity, i.e., observers increased the red luminance contrast for a fixed green luminance contrast. Enlarging the target size (to compensate for the cone density changes with eccentricity) and decreasing th...
متن کاملAnticipatory remapping of attentional priority across the entire visual field.
It has been suggested that one way we may create a stable percept of the visual world across multiple eye movements is to pass information from one set of neurons to another around the time of each eye movement. Previous studies have shown that some neurons in the lateral intraparietal area (LIP) exhibit anticipatory remapping: these neurons produce a visual response to a stimulus that will ent...
