Understanding visual perceptual learning (VPL) has become increasingly more challenging
as new phenomena are discovered with novel stimuli and training paradigms. Although …

Amblyopia is a neuro-developmental disorder characterised by several functional
impairments in spatial vision even with the best optical correction. There is evidence that …

Covert attention and perceptual learning enhance perceptual performance. The relation
between these two mechanisms is largely unknown. Previously, we showed that …

Studies of visual cortical responses following visual perceptual learning (VPL) have
produced diverse results, revealing neural changes in early and/or higher-level visual cortex …

Studies showing that repetitive visual stimulation protocols alter perception and induce
cortical reorganization, as well-reported for the tactile domain, have been sparse. In this …

Effective teaching critically relies upon effective evaluation because evaluation is required to
gain understanding of existing abilities and, in turn, determine learning outcomes. Methods …

Studies of neuron-behaviour correlation and causal manipulation have long been used
separately to understand the neural basis of perception. Yet these approaches sometimes …

Location specific perceptual learning can transfer to a new location if the new location is
trained with a secondary task that by itself does not impact the performance of the primary …

Perceptual learning (PL) has been traditionally thought of as highly specific to stimulus
properties, task and retinotopic position. This view is being progressively challenged, with …

Substantial transfer of perceptual skill learning can be achieved across large distances in
the visual field by a brief pre-test, training-plus-exposure, or a double-training paradigm …
