Abstract:

Observers searched for a Gaussian-windowed patch of sinewave grating (Gabor pattern) through displays containing varying numbers of other such patterns (distractors). When the spatial frequencies of target and distractors differed by ± 2 octaves and their orientations by ± 60°, the search proceeded spatially in parallel irrespective of whether the target could be discriminated in terms of spatial frequency differences alone, orientation differences alone, or their combination. However, when target and distractors differed by only ±.5 octave in spatial frequency and by ± 15° in orientation, the

Abstract:

Aspects of “emulation theory” have been seminal to our understanding of spatial orientation for more than 50 years. Sometimes called internal models, existing implementations include both traditional observers and optimal observers (Kalman filters). This theoretical approach has been quite successful in helping understand and explain spatial orientation – successful enough that experiments have been guided by model predictions.

Abstract:

We investigated the accuracy of haptic reproduction of line length and whether accuracy is influenced by line orientation. 13 blindfolded subjects felt along different line lengths at various orientations in the horizontal plane, then reproduced the line lengths in the same orientation as that felt. Efforts were made to equate learning and reproductive scanning movements. Reproductions of line lengths were a nonveridical power function of their true lengths, but the power function exponents did not differ across spatial orientations. It was concluded that people can encode line lengths across

Abstract:

Establishing and updating spatial relationships between objects in the environment is vital to maintaining situation awareness and supporting many socio-spatial tasks. In a complex environment, people often need to utilize multiple reference systems that are intrinsic to different objects (intrinsic frame of reference, IFOR), but these IFORs may conflict with each other in one or more ways. Current spatial cognition theories do not adequately address how people handle multi-IFOR reasoning problems. Two experiments manipulated relative orientations of two task-relevant objects with intrinsic ax

Abstract:

Illusions of body inversion and of vehicle inversion can be evoked by exposure to weightlessness in the microgravity conditions of orbital and parabolic flight. Such illusions can involve all possible combinations of self-inversion and vehicle inversion. In the absence of any patterns of external stimulation, individuals may lose all sense of body orientation to their surroundings while retaining a sense of their overall body configuration and cognitive awareness of their actual position. Touch and pressure cues provide a perceptual ‘down’ in the absence of visual input. When vision is allowed

After prolonged viewing of a three-element target in which the middle element is spatially offset, subsequent viewing of the same three elements in alignment results in the middle element appearing to be offset in the opposite direction.

Spatial ability measured by test performance and spatial activity experience, i.e., children’s reports about unsupervised walks, effected pointing accuracy as well.

Abstract:

Real-world objects are complex, containing information at multiple orientations and spatial scales. It is well established that at initial cortical stages of processing, local information about an image is separately represented at multiple spatial scales. However, it is not yet established how these early representations are later integrated across scale to signal useful information about complex stimulus features, such as edges and textures. In the studies reported here, we investigate the scale-integration processes involved in distinguishing among complex patterns. We use a concurrent-resp

Abstract:

We present a new psychophysical method to study the tuning of orientation detectors in the human visual system. The stimulus consists of a sequence of sinusoidal gratings of random orientations and spatial phases (but of fixed spatial frequency) shown at a high presentation rate (30 Hz) in 60 s long trials. The gratings are seen through a circular aperture. The subject's task is to report, as fast as possible, by pressing a key, when the presence of a horizontal grating is seen embedded in the stimulus sequence. The data are analysed by calculating the distribution of orientations present in t

Abstract:

We hypothesized that during perception of reversible figures the direction of gaze toward a specific perceptual focal point plays a determining role in the identification of the images, i.e., when subjects are asked by the experimenter to perceive one of the two images, a displacement of the eyes toward a specific spatial area of the figure occurs. For each image we think there is a particular point of the figure which acts as perceptual organizer. The stimuli were the Hill and Boring, Ehrenstein, Rubin, and Schroeder reversible figures.

It has been shown that discriminating the orientations of a target is influenced by the spatial distribution of the orientations of similar elements in the background.

In the present experiment, we explored the accuracy with which subjects can discriminate relative proportions of orientations distributed over a surface (background).

We report that spatial cueing of a parafoveal target in the presence of distractors enhances orientational acuity for that target. When no distractors were present, orientation thresholds were in the range 1–4°. For long exposure times, distractors increased threshold by the amount predicted from a winner-takes-all spatial uncertainty model. For short (100-msec) exposures followed by a random dot mask, the rise in threshold with distractors was considerably greater than that predicted from spatial uncertainty.

For response latency, there were significant main effects for visual field and direction. There were also several significant interactions of visual field, direction, and orientation.

The effect of attention was clearest for test stimuli at peri-threshold, intermediate contrast levels, suggesting that previous negative results were due to assessing orientation discrimination at maximum contrast.

Abstract:

A line abutting two tilted flanks is apparently shifted towards the orientation orthogonal to the flanks and at the same time is reduced in its apparent length.

Here implications of the filtering explanation of these effects are explored further. In the first experiment, it was predicted that orientation thresholds (as opposed to biases) would be increased for short line lengths, and would be further increased by abutting bars

For simple cells, we have shown that the above stimulus allows one to compute the projection of the receptive field onto the subspace spanned by the vectors in s (Ringach et al, 1996 ARVO Proceedings in press).

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to resolve a paradox in the literature on the effects of body orientation on spatial attention. Neuropsychological studies have found that real or simulated trunk rotation relieves contralesional inattention in patients with unilateral neglect, suggesting that trunk orientation affects how attention is allocated to space. However, in two previous studies, trunk orientation did not affect spatial attention in other populations. In this study, we investigated the effects of trunk orientation on the performance of a covert attention task by neurologically intact adul
