Perceptual Echoes at 10 Hz in the Human Brain
The occipital alpha rhythm (∼10 Hz) is the most prominent electrophysiological activity in the awake human brain, yet its functional role and relation to visual perception are little understood. Transient stimuli normally elicit a short series of positive and negative deflections lasting between 300 and 500 ms: the visual-evoked potential (VEP). Alpha oscillations, on the other hand, are genera...
متن کاملEchoes of the Brain
Transmodal (nonsensory-specific) regions sit at the confluence of different information streams, and play an important role in cognition. These regions are thought to receive and integrate information from multiple functional networks. However, little is known about (1) how transmodal cortices are functionally organized and (2) how this organization might facilitate information processing. In t...
متن کاملPerceptual criteria in the human brain.
A critical component of decision making is the ability to adjust criteria for classifying stimuli. fMRI and drift diffusion models were used to explore the neural representations of perceptual criteria in decision making. The specific focus was on the relative engagement of perceptual- and decision-related neural systems in response to adjustments in perceptual criteria. Human participants clas...
متن کاملNo Counterpart of Visual Perceptual Echoes in the Auditory System
It has been previously demonstrated by our group that a visual stimulus made of dynamically changing luminance evokes an echo or reverberation at ~10 Hz, lasting up to a second. In this study we aimed to reveal whether similar echoes also exist in the auditory modality. A dynamically changing auditory stimulus equivalent to the visual stimulus was designed and employed in two separate series of...
متن کاملNeural correlates of perceptual rivalry in the human brain.
When dissimilar images are presented to the two eyes, perception alternates spontaneously between each monocular view, a phenomenon called binocular rivalry. Functional brain imaging in humans was used to study the neural basis of these subjective perceptual changes. Cortical regions whose activity reflected perceptual transitions included extrastriate areas of the ventral visual pathway, and p...
