Adult Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and the isolation of low and high end component operations in temporal processing and time perception
(2009)Evidence has shown that Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is associated with deficits in temporal processing and time perception (Toplak & Tannock, 2004). Current literature, however, focuses on time perception ... -
Bimodal discrimination tasks involving different hierarchical processing levels reveal a late stage interaction between multisensory integration and attention
(2014-12-19)Multisensory integration and attention have been studied independently and a vast amount of literature exists for both phenomena. Researchers have recently raised questions, however, as to how these two processes interact. ... -
The effect of cycling female estradiol levels on retinal-based smooth pursuit eye movements (SPEM) and post-target offset persistence
(2015-06-15)Estradiol has primarily been associated with the female reproductive system; however, estradiol receptors have been located in the retinas of male and female humans, as well as throughout the central nervous system (CNS) ... -
Impact of depression and antidepressant pharmacotherapy on early stage visual functioning in the magno-, parvo-, and koniocellular pathways / by Joy J. Harrison.
(2010)Examines the fundamental processes of photopic visual functioning associated with the use of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), the most commonly prescribed type of antidepressant medication. Measures ... -
Seeing without rods or cones: contributions of intrinsically-photosensitive retinal ganglion cells to the image-forming visual system
(2014-01-22)It was long thought that rods and cones were the only components of the mammalian retina capable of conveying light information to the brain. Recently, a novel class of transduction-capable retinal ganglion cells containing ... -
Visuo-perceptual task performance across the menstrual cycle in women with and without premenstrual symptoms: potential influences of estradiol and estradiol sensitivity on retinogeniculostriate, extrastriate, and elementary retinal-based smooth pursuit pathways
(2012-11-10)The present study examined whether women with premenstrual symptoms (PMS) exhibit a different pattern of performance on psychophysical tasks across the menstrual cycle in comparison to control women. Research has shown ...
