Attention can be boosted by using neurofeedback to increase alpha brainwaves.
Study provides new evidence supporting the theory that perceptual limitations are caused by a correlated noise in neural activity.
A newly designed optical illusion is helping researchers better understand visual processing and perception. The illusion creates a subjective reality in what we see, highlighting the constructive nature of perception.
Aging bilingual brains are more efficient and economical with their resources, a new study reports.
Using EEG data, researchers discovered children on the autism spectrum do not automatically process illusory shapes as well as children not on the autism spectrum. The findings suggest something is going awry in the feedback-processing pathways in the brains of those with autism.
According to researchers, fly brains take typical features of the environment into account when calculating motion.
A new study reveals the ability to perceive differences between similar images may depend on the cultural background of the person viewing.
Researchers shed light on how the eyes compute the direction of moving light.
A new study reveals both auditory and visual learning follow similar principles. The findings, researchers report, could help in the development of new approaches to restore sensory deficits.
A test that uses images of cats and dogs may prove to be a quick and effective method of predicting which patients in early stages of Parkinson's disease will develop dementia.
Researchers report the variability in brain signals do not concern noise, as had previously been thought.
Brain dysfunction noted in schizophrenia patients may be a result of impaired expression of a protein complex associated with protein synthesis, researchers report.
