It is well known that extensive practice of a perceptual task can improve visual performance,
termed perceptual learning. The goal of the present study was to evaluate the dependency …

Visual perceptual learning describes the improvement of visual perception with repeated
practice. Previous research has established that the learning effects of perceptual training …

Practice in most sensory tasks substantially improves perceptual performance. A hallmark of
this 'perceptual learning'is its specificity for the basic attributes of the trained stimulus and …

Perceptual learning effects demonstrate that the adult visual system retains neural plasticity.
If perceptual learning holds any value as a treatment tool for amblyopia, trained …

It is well known that, in humans, contrast sensitivity training at high spatial frequency (SF) not
only leads to contrast sensitivity improvement, but also results in an improvement in visual …

Task-specific improvement in performance after training is well established. The finding that
learning is stimulus-specific and does not transfer well between different stimuli, between …

Studies have shown that Perceptual Learning (PL) can lead to enhancement of spatial
visual functions in amblyopic subjects. Here we aimed to determine whether a simple …

Purpose: Improvement on a perceptual task is dependent, in part, on the plasticity of the
visual area underlying the task. Here, we compared perceptual learning on a contrast …

Studies of perceptual learning have revealed a great deal of plasticity in adult humans. In
this study, we systematically investigated the effects and mechanisms of several forms (trial …

Goal. Perceptual learning is a long lasting improvement in the perception of a stimulus
following training. In vision and audition, studies have shown that irrelevant training does not …
