Perceptual grouping enhances visual plasticity. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Visual perceptual learning, a manifestation of neural plasticity, refers to improvements in performance on a visual task achieved by training. Attention is known to play an important role in perceptual learning, given that the observer's discriminative ...

Evidence for the beneficial effect of perceptual grouping on visual working memory: an empirical study on illusory contour and a meta-analytic study [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 The capacity of visual working memory (VWM) is found to be extremely limited. Past research shows that VWM can be facilitated by Gestalt principles of grouping, however, it remains controversial whether factors like the type of Gestalt principles, the ...

What Belongs Together Retrieves Together – The Role of Perceptual Grouping in Stimulus-Response Binding and Retrieval [PDF]
Journal of Cognition, 2022 Nowadays there is consensus that stimulus and response features are partially represented in the same coding format furthering the binding of these features into event files. If some or all features comprised in an event file repeat later, the whole file

Perceptual grouping and the bounce–stream illusion [PDF]
i-PerceptionTwo spots moving simultaneously along the same path in opposite directions can appear either to bounce or stream. Bouncing is promoted by spots that turn back and retrace their path.

Looking without Perceiving: Impaired Preattentive Perceptual Grouping in Autism Spectrum Disorder. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Before becoming aware of a visual scene, our perceptual system has organized and selected elements in our environment to which attention should be allocated. Part of this process involves grouping perceptual features into a global whole. Individuals with

The Impact of Perceptual Load and Distractors’ Perceptual Grouping on Visual Search in ASD [PDF]
Behavioral SciencesThis study examined potential visual search advantages in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and explored the roles of distractor grouping and perceptual load by comparing their performance with that of typically developing (TD) controls ...
