Sensory Development: Brief Visual Deprivation Alters Audiovisual Interactions
Two recent studies have independently demonstrated that short periods of visual deprivation early in human development can have long-term functional consequences on sensory perception and on the balance between auditory and visual attention.
متن کاملVisual deprivation alters the development of cortical multisensory integration.
It has recently been demonstrated that the maturation of normal multisensory circuits in the cortex of the cat takes place over an extended period of postnatal life. Such a finding suggests that the sensory experiences received during this time may play an important role in this developmental process. To test the necessity of sensory experience for normal cortical multisensory development, cats...
متن کاملA Brief Period of Postnatal Visual Deprivation Alters the Balance between Auditory and Visual Attention
Is a short and transient period of visual deprivation early in life sufficient to induce lifelong changes in how we attend to, and integrate, simple visual and auditory information [1, 2]? This question is of crucial importance given the recent demonstration in both animals and humans that a period of blindness early in life permanently affects the brain networks dedicated to visual, auditory, ...
متن کاملEffect of brief sensory deprivation on field dependence.
To determine whether brief sensory deprivation (SD) would act to decrease perceptual field dependence, 41 male and female college students were given the Rod and Frame Test (RFT). 1 of the group then underwent 1 hr. of SD, after which a 2nd RFT indicated a significant decrease (p < .01) in errors of orientation. The control group was given the RFT and their activity was controlled during the 1 ...
متن کاملVisual Deprivation Alters Development of Synaptic Function in Inner Retina after Eye Opening
Visual deprivation impedes refinement of neuronal function in higher visual centers of mammals. It is often assumed that visual deprivation has minimal effect, if any, on neuronal function in retina. Here we report that dark rearing reduces the light-evoked responsiveness of inner retinal neurons in young mice. We also find that 1 to 2 weeks after eye opening, there is a surge (>4-fold) in the ...
