Case studies of children with autism indicate that there are still many patterns in therapy and assessing the abilities non-speaking is a huge problem. The search for individually-adapted communication strategies should be emphasised. Writing offers great opportunities communication, however, it often not offered to nonspeaking children, especially those profound perceptual disorders.

Representational neglect, which is characterized by the failure to report left-sided details of a mental image from memory, can occur after a right hemisphere lesion. In this study, we set out to verify the hypothesis that two distinct forms of representational neglect exist, one involving object representation and the other environmental representation. As representational neglect is considere...

Numerous psychophysical studies have described perceptual learning as long-lasting improvements in perceptual discrimination and detection capabilities following practice. Where and how long-term plastic changes occur in the brain is central to understanding the neural basis of perceptual learning. Here, neurophysiological research using non-human primates is reviewed to address the neural mech...

Previous studies have demonstrated a left perceptual bias while looking at faces, due to the fact that observers mainly use information from the left side of a face (from the observer's point of view) to perform a judgment task. Such a bias is consistent with the right hemisphere dominance for face processing and has sometimes been linked to a left gaze bias, i.e. more and/or longer fixations o...

Auditory hallucinations are one of the symptoms mental disorders in which individuals experience sensory-perceptual changes that need to get treatment as soon possible. To overcome problem auditory hallucinations, this can be done through music therapy. The aim study was determine effect classical therapy on reducing patients with disorders. research method used a quasi-experimental pre-post te...

Since the beginning of COVID-19 pandemic, a tremendous amount information is spread through social media, including wrong/ misinterpreted and rumors. World Health Organization (WHO) named this mis/disinformation about pandemic as “infodemic”. In research, Scopus PubMed databases were searched with ‘infodemic’ ‘mental health’ keywords. The data gathered revealed that mental health disorders, per...

This article reviews information on some auditory disorders that have in common a disturbance in loudness perception. The perceptual disturbances in these disorders have interchangeably been labeled "hyperacusis," "dysacusis," or "phonophobia." Our question concerns whether the loudness disturbances associated with these auditory disorders are sufficiently different as not to justify the equiva...

Speech sound disorders are almost always identified and described by their auditoryperceptual properties, as determined by adult listeners.Given that auditory-perceptual properties are extracted from the acoustic signal of speech, it follows that acoustic methods should be highly suited to the study of these disorders. But the capability for doing something is not the same as the necessity or e...

Visual perceptual disorders are often presented as a disparate group of neurological deficits with little consideration given to the wide range of visual symptoms found in psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disease. Here, the authors attempt a functional anatomical classification of all disorders linked to visual perception, whatever the clinical context in which they arise, including those dis...
