Autism is a complex neurodevelopmental condition, and little is known about its
neurobiology. Much of autism research has focused on the social, communication and …

This review focuses on covert attention and how it alters early vision. I explain why attention
is considered a selective process, the constructs of covert attention, spatial endogenous and …

Survival can depend on the ability to change a current course of action to respond to
potentially advantageous or threatening stimuli. This" reorienting" response involves the …

Oscillations are ubiquitous in electrical recordings of brain activity. While the amplitude of
ongoing oscillatory activity is known to correlate with various aspects of perception, the …

Attention has been found to have a wide variety of effects on the responses of neurons in
visual cortex. We describe a model of attention that exhibits each of these different forms of …

We introduce functional MRI methods for estimating the neuronal population receptive field
(pRF). These methods build on conventional visual field mapping that measures responses …

Predictive coding models suggest that predicted sensory signals are attenuated (silencing of
prediction error). These models, though influential, are challenged by the fact that prediction …

Attentional effort relates to the allocation of limited-capacity attentional resources to meet
current task demands and involves the activation of top-down attentional systems in the …

Working memory refers to the temporary retention of information that was just experienced or
just retrieved from long-term memory but no longer exists in the external environment. These …

Retinotopic mapping of functional magnetic resonance (fMRI) responses evoked by visual
stimuli has resulted in the identification of many areas in human visual cortex and a …
