Page mode reading with simulated scotomas: Oculo-motor patterns
This study investigated the relationship between reading speed and oculo-motor parameters when normally sighted observers had to read single sentences with an artificial macular scotoma. Using multiple regression analysis, our main result shows that two significant predictors, number of saccades per sentence followed by average fixation duration, account for 94% of reading speed variance: readi...
متن کاملBlending Transparent Motion Patterns in Peripheral Vision
Human observers are very good at segmenting visual scenes consisting of multiple moving objects. Segregation of transparent motions, however, turns out to be a predominantly central vision process. In peripheral vision transparent motions are blended to form a single novel pattern whose coherent motion corresponds to the average of the separate motions, whilst sensitivity to small differences i...
متن کاملChanges in stereotyped central motor patterns controlling vocalization are induced by peripheral nerve injury.
Adult male zebra finches (Taeniopygia guttata), as closed-ended learners, normally crystallize their songs at 90 days of age, and the song remains fixed throughout life (Price, 1979). We show that injuring the tracheosyringeal nerve(s) (each of which innervates the ipsilateral half of the syrinx, the avian vocal organ) results in a short-term deficit in the syllables forming adult male song; th...
متن کاملLocating the cortical bottleneck for slow reading in peripheral vision.
Yu, Legge, Park, Gage, and Chung (2010) suggested that the neural bottleneck for slow peripheral reading is located in nonretinotopic areas. We investigated the potential rate-limiting neural site for peripheral reading using fMRI, and contrasted peripheral reading with recognition of peripherally presented line drawings of common objects. We measured the BOLD responses to both text (three-lett...
متن کاملPsychophysics of reading XX. Linking letter recognition to reading speed in central and peripheral vision
Our goal is to link spatial and temporal properties of letter recognition to reading speed for text viewed centrally or in peripheral vision. We propose that the size of the visual span - the number of letters recognizable in a glance - imposes a fundamental limit on reading speed, and that shrinkage of the visual span in peripheral vision accounts for slower peripheral reading. In Experiment 1...
