Amygdala Neurodegeneration: A Key Driver of Visual Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Visual disability in Parkinson's disease (PD) is not fully explained by retinal neurodegeneration. We aimed to delineate the brain substrate of visual dysfunction in PD and its association with retinal thickness. Methods Forty‐two PD patients and 29 controls underwent 3‐Tesla MRI, retinal spectral‐domain optical coherence tomography,

Acute stress does not modulate selective attention in a composite letter task

Stress
Acute stress has been demonstrated to affect a diverse array of attentional processes, one of which is selective attention. Selective attention refers to the cognitive process of deliberately allocating attentional resources to a specific stimulus, while

Visual experience shapes the Bouba-Kiki effect and the size-weight illusion upon sight restoration from congenital blindness

Scientific Reports, 2023
The Bouba-Kiki effect is the systematic mapping between round/spiky shapes and speech sounds (“Bouba”/“Kiki”). In the size-weight illusion, participants judge the smaller of two equally-weighted objects as being heavier.

How do Visualization Designers Think? Design Cognition as a Core Aspect of Visualization Psychology [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
There are numerous opportunities for engaging in research at the intersection of psychology and visualization. While most opportunities taken up by the VIS community will likely focus on the psychology of users, there are also opportunities for studying the psychology of designers.

Assortativity in cognition [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
In pairwise interactions assortativity in cognition means that pairs where both decision-makers use the same cognitive process are more likely to occur than what happens under random matching. In this paper we study both the mechanisms determining assortativity in cognition and its effects. In particular, we analyze an applied model where assortativity
