Defining perceptual synchrony
(Kijima Printing Co., 2007)
How does neuronal activity bring about the interpretation of visual space in terms of objects or complex perceptual events? If they group, simple visual features can bring about the integration of spikes from neurons ...
Can we explain cross-modal representation with neural algorithms alone?: Commentary on Paillard
(North-Holland, 1999)
Recent research in both psychophysics and electrophysiology has revealed a number of examples in which behaviour is guided by (i.e. Spence & Driver, 1996), and brain activity has been argued to correlate with, the formation ...
Prefrontal cortex and the generation of oscillatory visual persistence
(Cambridge University Press, 2003)
In this commentary, the formation of ¿pre-iconic¿ visual-prime persistence is described in the context of prime-specific, independent-component activation at prefrontal and posterior EEG-recording sites. Although this ...
Evidence for 40-Hz oscillatory short-term visual memory revealed by human reaction-time measurements
(American Psychological Association, 2000-05)
Four experiments show that presentation of a synchronous premask frame within a 40-Hz, flickering premask matrix primes subsequent detection of a Kanizsa-type square by generation of a 40-Hz prime. Reaction time (RT) priming ...
Structural imbalance and aesthetic preference in domestic chicks
(The International Society for Psychophysics, 2010-10)
In Arnheim¿s (1954/1974) theory of structural balance, an image is more aesthetically pleasing when it demonstrates balance between multiple internal sources of directed perceptual force. Areas of balance and preferred ...
A moment to reflect upon perceptual synchrony
(MIT Press, 2006-10)
How does neuronal activity bring about the interpretation of visual space in terms of objects or complex perceptual events? If they group, simple visual features can bring about the integration of spikes from neurons ...
Electrophysiological correlates of flicker-induced form hallucinations
(The International Society for Psychophysics, 2010-10)
Form hallucinations can be reliably induced using temporally modulated light within a specific frequency range (15-30Hz). The neural substrates of such states have yet to be established with certainty. Brain activity of 5 ...
Temporal structure and inner psychophysics: A glimpse of equilibrium?
(The International Society for Psychophysics, 2010-10)
It has been suggested that the synchronization of spatially distributed neural assemblies at fast frequencies in the range 20 - 80 Hz (the ¿gamma¿ band) is instrumental for binding the separate feature-elements of a figure ...
New measures of functional (but not perceptual) continuity in visual grouping
(International Society for Psychophysics, 2004)
The benzodiazepine, Lorazepam enhances the efficiency of inhibitory GABA-A synapses in the cortex, which stabilize postsynaptic, excitatory activity by synchronizing their own discharges at around 40 Hz. Lorazepam treatment ...
Evidence for impaired integration-segmentation processes and slowed synchrony coding in dyslexics
(Pabst Science Publishers, 2001)
Using a primed figure-detection task we were able to reveal the existence of two distinct groups of dyslexics. One group is characterized by a significant impairment of visual integration-segmentation processes, resulting ...
