New developments in clinical psychophysics allow a non-invasive assessment of visual function which may otherwise not be possible. Measurements of spatial and temporal contrast sensitivity functions, perimetric rod and cone sensitivity, colour vision testing, and newer tests such as hyperacuity thresholds may provide information about the mechanism of ...

The Irreducibility of Vision: Gestalt, Crowding and the Fundamentals of Vision
What is fundamental in vision has been discussed for millennia. For philosophical realists and the physiological approach to vision, the objects of the outer world are truly given, and failures to perceive objects properly, such as in illusions, are just

Visual onset expands subjective time [PDF]
We report a distortion of subjective time perception in which the duration of a first interval is perceived to be longer than the succeeding interval of the same duration. The amount of time expansion depends on the onset type defining the first interval.

Neural Dynamics of Motion Perception: Direction Fields, Apertures, and Resonant Grouping [PDF]
A neural network model of global motion segmentation by visual cortex is described. Called the Motion Boundary Contour System (BCS), the model clarifies how ambiguous local movements on a complex moving shape are actively reorganized into a coherent ...

Modeling Mental Qualities [PDF]
Conscious experiences are characterized by mental qualities, such as those involved in seeing red, feeling pain, or smelling cinnamon. The standard framework for modeling mental qualities represents them via points in geometrical spaces, where distances ...

Who Is the Founder of Psychophysics and Experimental Psychology?
The study is an investigation of the origins of psychophysics and experimental psychology. According to historians of psychology, Francis Bacon had the most crucial influence in the history of the experimental method, because he emphasized the importance

EEG microstates are a candidate endophenotype for schizophrenia
EEG microstate abnormalities have been reported in patients with schizophrenia. Here the authors demonstrate that patients and their siblings show similar microstate abnormalities compared to healthy controls.

Nested Selves: Self‐Organization and Shared Markov Blankets in Prenatal Development in Humans
Abstract The immune system is a central component of organismic function in humans. This paper addresses self‐organization of biological systems in relation to—and nested within—other biological systems in pregnancy. Pregnancy constitutes a fundamental state for human embodiment and a key step in the evolution and conservation of our species. While not

Low‐contrast visual acuity versus low‐luminance visual acuity in choroideremia
Clinical relevance Choroideremia is a progressive X‐linked inherited rod‐cone dystrophy. Patients present with nyctalopia and progressive visual field loss, but visual acuity remains well preserved early on. This study showed that low‐luminance visual acuity may be a useful clinical outcome measure during earlier disease stages.
