Implicitly Evoked Actions Modulate Visual Selection: Evidence from Parietal Extinction
It has been proposed that the mental representation of a graspable object involves not only a description of its visual properties but also encodings of the motor programs to act upon it. Thus, observing a handle automatically primes the motor programs responsible for reaching and grasping it. Here, we provide neurological evidence that such action-related object features can bias visual select...
متن کاملDirect evidence from parietal extinction of enhancement of visual attention near a visible hand
Brain areas exist that appear to be specialized for the coding of visual space surrounding the body (peripersonal space). In marked contrast to neurons in earlier visual areas, cells have been reported in parietal and frontal lobes that effectively respond only when visual stimuli are located in spatial proximity to a particular body part (for example, face, arm or hand) [1-4]. Despite several ...
متن کاملPreattentive filling-in of visual surfaces in parietal extinction.
Unilateral brain damage frequently produces "extinction," in which patients can detect brief single visual stimuli on either side but are unaware of a contralesional stimulus if presented concurrently with an ipsilesional stimulus. Explanations for extinction have invoked deficits in initial processes that operate before the focusing of visual attention or in later attentive stages of vision. P...
متن کاملFaces call for attention: evidence from patients with visual extinction.
Three patients with left spatial neglect and visual extinction from right brain damage were studied to determine whether faces are privileged in summoning attention. In a first experiment, either a face, a name, or a meaningless shape were briefly presented in the right, left or both visual hemifields. On bilateral trials, all patients extinguished a left-side face much less often than a left-s...
متن کاملVisual-evoked potential evidence of chiasmal hypoplasia.
PURPOSE To show that chiasmal hypoplasia or aplasia need not be an isolated developmental anomaly and to examine the spectrum of associated clinical findings to explore the possibility that these patients may represent a phenotypic manifestation of a developmental gene anomaly. DESIGN An observational case series. PARTICIPANTS Five infants, between several weeks and 7 months of age, in whom...
