Visual Attention and Cognition

چکیده
It has been proposed that saccadic eye movements to visual targets are preceded by covert shifts of attention to these locations. In this review, we discuss the evidence for this hypothesis and the role of brain regions in directing rapid shifts of attention and gaze. We suggest there is a common neural architecture mediating both these types of movement.

متن کاملGenetics and visual attention: Selective deficits in healthy adult carriers of the «4 allele of the apolipoprotein E gene
The «4 allele of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene is associated with altered brain physiology in healthy adults before old age, but concomitant deficits in cognition on standardized tests of cognitive function have not been consistently demonstrated. We hypothesized that sensitive and specific assessment of basic attentional functions that underlie complex cognition would reveal evidence of imp...
متن کاملAnalysis of Visual Impacts in Compact City’s Form
Desired physical form of cities has been noticeable since the beginning of urbanization, from old patterns of early civilizations to the latest urbanism’s theories, which offered to build better cities.

متن کاملExpectation (and attention) in visual cognition.
Visual cognition is limited by computational capacity, because the brain can process only a fraction of the visual sensorium in detail, and by the inherent ambiguity of the information entering the visual system. Two mechanisms mitigate these burdens: attention prioritizes stimulus processing on the basis of motivational relevance, and expectations constrain visual interpretation on the basis o...
