Cortical hyperexcitability and sensitivity to discomfort glare
Neuropsychologia, 2015 It is well established that there are two main aspects to glare, the visual impairment and the discomfort, known as disability and discomfort glare, respectively. In contrast to the case of disability glare we understand very little about the underlying mechanisms or physiology of discomfort glare. This study attempts to elucidate the neural mechanisms

, 2022 This study investigates the relation between static and dynamic discomfort glare, as experienced by drivers, in a laboratory experiment with a panel of 32 participants. It provides a model to estimate an overall glare level from successive static glare levels. This model integrates a temporal decay of the glare level memory.

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT While Australia's National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) was founded on principles of choice and control, for people with significant mental health challenges (what the NDIS calls ‘psychosocial disability’) these ideals often remain elusive. Support systems continue to be fractured and in the context of ongoing policy reforms, it is vital
