Approximately 10% of melanoma cases report a relative affected with melanoma, and a
positive family history is associated with an increased risk of developing melanoma …

This is a survey of psychophysical studies of motion perception carried out mainly in the last
10 years. It covers a wide range of topics, including the detection and interactions of local …

Segregation of objects from their backgrounds is a fundamental visual function and one that
is particularly effective when objects are in motion. Theoretically, suppressive center …

As stimulus size increases, motion direction of high-contrast patterns becomes increasingly
harder to perceive. This counterintuitive behavioral result, termed “spatial suppression,” is …

Perception operates on an immense amount of incoming information that greatly exceeds
the brain's processing capacity. Because of this fundamental limitation, the ability to …

Efficient neural processing depends on regulating responses through suppression and
facilitation of neural activity. Utilizing a well-known visual motion paradigm that evokes …

We evaluated spatial displacement and temporal duration thresholds for discriminating the
motion direction of gratings for a broad range of speeds (0.06/s to 30/s) in fovea and at±30 …

Selective attention enhances visual information processing, as measured by behavioral
performance and neural activity. However, little is known about its effects on subjective …

Abnormal sensory processing has been observed in autism, including superior visual
motion discrimination, but the neural basis for these sensory changes remains unknown …

Sensitivity to motion direction is affected by stimulus size, contrast (D. Tadin & JS Lappin,
2005; D. Tadin, JS Lappin, LA Gilroy, & R. Blake, 2003), and observer age (LR Betts, CP …
