Centre-surround effects on perceived orientation in complex images
Using the simultaneous tilt illusion [Gibson, J., & Radner, M. (1937). Adaptation, after-effect and contrast in the perception of tilted lines. Journal of Experimental Psychology, 12, 453-467], we investigate the perception of orientation in natural images and textures with similar statistical properties. We show that the illusion increases if observers judge the average orientation of textures...
متن کاملAging alters surround modulation of perceived contrast.
It is well established that many visual functions deteriorate with age. Perhaps counter-intuitively, a recent study revealed that older people actually require less time to discriminate the direction of motion of large, high contrast moving stimuli than young adults (L. R. Betts, C. P. Taylor, A. B. Sekuler, & P. J. Bennett, 2005). L. R. Betts et al. (2005) proposed their finding as evidence fo...
متن کاملContrast and stimulus duration dependence of perceptual surround suppression in older adults
Most natural visual tasks involve the extraction of visual features from suprathreshold contrast backgrounds, hence an understanding of how ageing impacts on contrast mechanisms is essential to understand elderly visual function. Previous studies have revealed increased perceptual surround suppression of contrast in older adults. We aimed to determine whether such age-related effects depend on ...
متن کاملThe Neural Basis of Centre-Surround Interactions in Visual Motion Processing
Perception of a moving visual stimulus can be suppressed or enhanced by surrounding context in adjacent parts of the visual field. We studied the neural processes underlying such contextual modulation with fMRI. We selected motion selective regions of interest (ROI) in the occipital and parietal lobes with sufficiently well defined topography to preclude direct activation by the surround. BOLD ...
