Perceived length in the central visual field: evidence for visual field asymmetries
Visual performance for judging the length of a simultaneously presented pair of radial lines, reciprocally opposed by 180 degrees at a central fixation point, was assessed for 24 radial positions of test lines, for three viewing conditions (binocular, left and right monocular) and five different standard line sizes (1.43-7.13 degrees ). Generally, the results showed underestimation of the test ...
متن کاملVisual field asymmetries in attention and learning.
It has been suggested that attentional resolution is greater in the lower than in the upper visual field. As there is no corresponding asymmetry between the areas in the primary visual cortex where the input from upper and lower visual fields is processed, an 'attentional filter' has been proposed to act in one or more higher visual cortical areas in order to constrict the availability of visua...
متن کاملVisual field asymmetries and allocation of attention in visual scenes.
Single items such as objects, letters or words are often presented in the right or left visual field to examine hemispheric differences in cognitive processing. However, in everyday life, such items appear within a visual context or scene that affects how they are represented and selected for attention. Here we examine processing asymmetries for a visual target within a frame of other elements ...
متن کاملCentral visual field in diabetes.
Little detailed work has been reported on the central visual field in diabetes. Scott (I957) stated that "the causation of scotomata by endogenic toxins is extremely rare"; DuboisPoulsen (1952) reported a study of diabetic patients using rod scotometry (Livingston, 1943) in which central field scotomata were found in eyes with no visible retinopathy. The original reference to diabetic patients ...
متن کاملSpatial summation across the central visual field: implications for visual field testing.
In the present study, we measured the extent of spatial summation in the detection of image contrast within the central 40° visual field. Contrast detection thresholds (in 28 observers) were measured for a spot of light of 10 different sizes [area: 0.03-1.92(°)(2)] at different retinal meridians (0°, 45°, 90°, 135°, 180°, 225°, 270°, and 315°) and eccentricities (0°, 5°, 10°, 15°, and 20°). Con...
