The sensory enhancement theory assumes that attentional resources will spread until they reach the boundaries of a cued object, [1] [2] including regions that may be obstructed or are overlapping other objects. [3] [4] It has been suggested that sensory enhancement is an essential mechanism that underlies object-based attention.
The eye-contact effect is a psychological phenomenon in human selective attention and cognition.It is the effect that the perception of eye contact with another human face has on certain mechanisms in the brain. [1]
The critical region of the IO for eyeblink conditioning is the dorsal accessory olive (Brodal, 1981), and climbing fibers (CF) from this region send information about the US to the cerebellum (Brodal, Walberg & Hoddevik, 1975; Thompson, 1989).
The visual system is the physiological basis of visual perception (the ability to detect and process light).The system detects, transduces and interprets information concerning light within the visible range to construct an image and build a mental model of the surrounding environment.
[a] In the center of the visual field, corresponding to the center of the fovea of the retina, a very large number of neurons process information from a small region of the visual field. If the same stimulus is seen in the periphery of the visual field (i.e. away from the center), it would be processed by a much smaller number of neurons.
Visual memory occurs over a broad time range spanning from eye movements to years in order to visually navigate to a previously visited location. [1] Visual memory is a form of memory which preserves some characteristics of our senses pertaining to visual experience.
The colour centre is a region in the brain primarily responsible for visual perception and cortical processing of colour signals received by the eye, which ultimately results in colour vision.
A phosphene is the perception of light without light actually entering the eye, for instance caused by pressure applied to the closed eyes. A phenomenon that could be entoptical if the eyelashes are considered to be part of the eye is seeing light diffracted through the eyelashes.
