Rapidly acquired shape and face aftereffects are retinotopic and local in origin.

摘要: Visual adaptation results in aftereffects that exaggerate the difference between successively experienced stimuli. In tilt aftereffect (TAE), for example, perceived orientation of a test line is repelled from an adapting line. This principle also applies to more complex Adaptation faces can displace next face viewed along axes such as identity, gender, ethnicity and specific emotions (Webster et al., 2004). The TAE field has been proposed general mechanism by which perceptual differences shapes, including faces, could be enhanced through systematic application local TAEs (Dickinson, Almeida, 2010). this way perception systematically modified any dimension interest defined morphology. Because time course rapid (Sekuler & Littlejohn, 1974) same needs true shapes Experiment 1 study shows it is. Moreover, selective cells early visual cortex are retinotopically arranged with limited receptive sizes so sensitive stimuli particular regions field. A explanation shape requires, therefore, retinotopic 2 obtains result. 3 exploits folded illusion demonstrate simple result shift emotion face.
