Extrastriate cortex: A signature of perception grows
Neuronal activity in area MT of the extrastriate visual cortex is correlated with the choices monkeys make on perceptual tasks. New evidence suggests that this correlation is stronger on some tasks than others.
متن کاملA double dissociation between striate and extrastriate visual cortex for pattern motion perception revealed using rTMS.
The neural mechanisms underlying the integration and segregation of motion signals are often studied using plaid stimuli. These stimuli consist of two spatially coincident dynamic gratings of differing orientations, which are either perceived to move in two unique directions or are integrated by the visual system to elicit the percept of a checkerboard moving in a single direction. Computations...
متن کاملThe fusiform face area: a module in human extrastriate cortex specialized for face perception.
Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), we found an area in the fusiform gyrus in 12 of the 15 subjects tested that was significantly more active when the subjects viewed faces than when they viewed assorted common objects. This face activation was used to define a specific region of interest individually for each subject, within which several new tests of face specificity were run....
متن کاملAnalysis of retinotopic maps in extrastriate cortex.
Two new techniques for analyzing retinotopic maps--arrow diagrams and visual field sign maps--are demonstrated with a large electrophysiological mapping data set from owl monkey extrastriate visual cortex. An arrow diagram (vectors indicating receptive field centers placed at cortical coordinates) provides a more compact and understandable representation of retinotopy than does a standard recep...
متن کاملPerception of apparent motion is related to the magnetic response from the human extrastriate cortex
When an object is perceived visually as moving, it may not be real motion. The alternate turning on and off of two lights with proper distance and timing induces a sense of the movement of the light, called apparent motion [1]. This image of motion is the product of the human brain because no such motion exists in the visual stimuli presented. Visual illusions such as apparent motion have been ...
