Attention influences the processing of visual information even in the earliest areas of primate
visual cortex. There is converging evidence that the interaction of bottom-up sensory …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging adaptation (fMRIa) is an increasingly popular
method that aims to provide insight into the functional properties of subpopulations of …

Recent research indicates that sensory and motor cortical areas play a significant role in the
neural representation of concepts. However, little is known about the overall architecture of …

Functional neuroimaging has successfully identified brain areas that show greater
responses to visual motion [1–3] and adapted responses to repeated motion directions [4 …

The illusion of apparent motion can be induced when visual stimuli are successively
presented at different locations. It has been shown in previous studies that motion-sensitive …

Second-order textures—patterns that cannot be detected by mechanisms sensitive only to
luminance changes—are ubiquitous in visual scenes, but the neuronal mechanisms …

The neural representation of facial expression within the human visual system is not well
defined. Using an adaptation paradigm, we examined aftereffects on expression perception …

The motion aftereffect is a robust illusion of visual motion resulting from exposure to a
moving pattern. There is a widely accepted explanation of it in terms of changes in the …

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 …

Traditionally, psychological research on autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has focused on
social and cognitive abilities. Vision provides an important input channel to both of these …
