Perceptual learning on orientation and direction discrimination
Two experiments were conducted to determine the extent to which perceptual learning transfers between orientation and direction discrimination. Naive observers were trained to discriminate orientation differences between two single-line stimuli, and direction differences between two single-moving-dot stimuli. In the first experiment, observers practiced the orientation and direction tasks along...
متن کاملTask-specific perceptual learning on speed and direction discrimination
Twenty-two nai;ve undergraduates participated in a psychophysical experiment designed to elucidate the neural events that allow us to see subtle motion differences. Half of the subjects practiced extensively on a direction-discrimination task while the other half practiced extensively on a speed-discrimination task. The stimulus conditions in the two groups were identical. The results indicated...
متن کاملPerceptual learning of motion direction discrimination in fovea: Separable mechanisms
Dosher and Lu (1998) [Perceptual learning reflects external noise filtering and internal noise reduction through channel reweighting. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 95 (23), 13988-13993.] proposed three mechanisms of perceptual learning: stimulus enhancement, external noise exclusion, and multiplicative noise reduction. In this study, we used pr...
متن کاملDecoupling location specificity from perceptual learning of orientation discrimination
Perceptual learning of orientation discrimination is reported to be precisely specific to the trained retinal location. This specificity is often taken as evidence for localizing the site of orientation learning to retinotopic cortical areas V1/V2. However, the extant physiological evidence for training improved orientation turning in V1/V2 neurons is controversial and weak. Here we demonstrate...
متن کاملPerceptual Learning of Orientation Discrimination by More Than One Attribute
Using a perceptual learning paradigm, we evaluated whether information from the attributes: color, luminance and motion is combined to provide orientation coding. Four observers were trained to discriminate the orientation between color-defined bars, four between luminance-defined bars, and four between motion-defined bars. Before and after training, they were tested with each of the three attr...
