Insensitivity to Fearful Emotion for Early ERP Components in High Autistic Tendency Is Associated with Lower Magnocellular Efficiency

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Low spatial frequency (LSF) visual information is extracted rapidly from fearful faces, suggesting magnocellular involvement. Autistic phenotypes demonstrate altered magnocellular processing, which we propose contributes to a decreased P100 evoked ...

The functional field of view of older adults is associated with contrast discrimination in the magnocellular not parvocellular pathway

open access: yes, 2020
Objectives: As we age, the functional field of view (FFOV) declines and these declines predict falls and motor vehicle accidents in older adults (Owsley, C. (2013). Visual processing speed. Vision Research, 90, 52-56.

Theories about Developmental Dyslexia

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2023
Despite proving its usefulness for over a century, the concept of developmental dyslexia (DD) is currently in severe disarray because of the recent introduction of the phonological theory of its causation.

Efficiency in Magnocellular Processing: A Common Deficit in Neurodevelopmental Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2020
Several neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) including Developmental Dyslexia (DD), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), but not Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD), are reported to show deficits in global motion processing.

Magnocellular Pathway and Reading Rate: An Equivalence Test Analysis

open access: yes, 2018
Previous research has revealed conflicting results with regard to the role of the magnocellular visual system in reading and dyslexia. In order to investigate this further, the present study examined the relationship between performance on two ...

Effects of stresscopin on rat hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus neurons in vitro. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The effects of stresscopin (SCP) on rat paraventricular nucleus (PVN) neurons were examined using whole-cell patch-clamp recordings and single-cell reverse-transcription multiplex polymerase chain reaction (SC-RT-mPCR) techniques.

Autistic Children Show a Surprising Relationship between Global Visual Perception, Non-Verbal Intelligence and Visual Parvocellular Function, Not Seen in Typically Developing Children

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Despite much current research into the visual processing style of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), understanding of the neural mechanisms is lagging, especially with respect to the contributions of the overlapping dichotomies of ...

Magnocellular reading and dyslexia

open access: yes, 2005
It is pointed out that the question of the potential role of magnocellular neurons in reading is distinctly separate from the question of whether or not a magnocellular deficit is the cause of dyslexia. These two issues should not be confused.

Transcription factor Creb3l1 maintains proteostasis in neuroendocrine cells

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2022
