Magnocellular training improves visual word recognition
Current research has shown that basic visual networks, such as the magnocellular system, may play a crucial role in reading deficits related to dyslexia. The current study explored the relationship between magnocellular activity and reading abilities; we examined the hypothesis that a repeated usage of the magnocellular stream may improve reading by strengthening crucial neural pathways. Visual...
متن کاملMagnocellular and parvocellular visual pathway contributions to visual field anisotropies
It is well established that sensitivity is not necessarily equivalent at isoeccentric locations across the visual field. The focus of this study was a psychophysical examination of the spatial sensitivity differences between the upper and lower visual hemifields under conditions biased toward the presumed magnocellular or parvocellular visual pathway. Experiment 1 showed higher contrast sensiti...
متن کاملMagnocellular and parvocellular influences on reflexive attention
Previous studies have provided conflicting evidence regarding whether the magnocellular (M) or parvocellular (P) visual pathway is primarily responsible for triggering involuntary orienting. Here, we used event-related potentials (ERPs) to provide new evidence that both the M and P pathways can trigger attentional capture and bias visual processing at multiple levels. Specifically, cued-locatio...
متن کاملContrast-processing dysfunction in both magnocellular and parvocellular pathways in migraineurs with or without aura.
PURPOSE To assess contrast-discrimination thresholds in patients with migraine who have manifest visual field loss. This study was undertaken to determine whether contrast processing abnormalities in migraineurs are more readily identified by using stimuli that elicit a response from the subject that depends, at least in part, on adaptation mechanisms, and if so, whether deficits appear more pr...
متن کاملConvergence of parvocellular and magnocellular information channels in the primary visual cortex of the macaque.
We investigated whether responses of single cells in the striate cortex of anaesthetized macaque monkeys exhibit signatures of both parvocellular (P) and magnocellular (M) inputs from the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN). We used a palette of 128 isoluminant hues at four different saturation levels to test responses to chromatic stimuli against a white background. Spectral selectivity w...
