Spatiotemporal distortions of visual perception at the time of saccades.

19 Oct 2009 Both space and time are grossly distorted during saccades. Here we show that the two distortions are strongly linked, and that both could be a consequence of the transient remapping mechanisms that affect visual neurons perisaccadically. We measured ... Read more...

Confidence and corrections: how we make and un-make up our minds.

22 Sep 2009 Single neurons in several brain areas intervening between sensation and action signal the accumulation of sensory evidence favoring a particular behavioral response. Two new studies show that these same neurons encode decision confidence and that ... Read more...

Seeing face-like objects: an event-related potential study.

21 Sep 2009 The N170 event-related potential component is larger to faces than to other objects but also varies in amplitude between non-face objects. This study investigated the hypotheses that these differences are related to the perceived face-likeness of ... Read more...
