[HTML][HTML] Eccentricity effects in vision and attention
CF Staugaard, A Petersen, S Vangkilde - Neuropsychologia, 2016 - Elsevier
Stimulus eccentricity affects visual processing in multiple ways. Performance on a visual task
is often better when target stimuli are presented near or at the fovea compared to the retinal …

Retinotopic patterns of functional connectivity between V1 and large-scale brain networks during resting fixation
Psychophysical and neurobiological evidence suggests that central and peripheral vision
are specialized for different functions. This specialization of function might be expected to …

[HTML][HTML] Frontal cortical regions associated with attention connect more strongly to central than peripheral V1
SA Sims, P Demirayak, S Cedotal, KM Visscher - Neuroimage, 2021 - Elsevier
The functionality of central vision is different from peripheral vision. Central vision is used for
fixation and has higher acuity, making it useful for everyday activities such as reading and …
