Michael Herzog, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Aaron Michael Clarke, Fred Mast

Unlike in cognition, audition and somatosensation, performance between various visual tasks does not correlate. Surprisingly, even tasks that appear similar, like visual acuity and line bisection task do not share much common variance. Similar results were ...

Gender differences in visual perception

Michael Herzog, Christine Mohr, Maya Roinishvili

Gender differences are well established in cognition and somato-sensation, but there are almost no studies on gender differences in visual perception. One reason is that sample size is often small because effect sizes are large. Small samples are not well ...

Visual impairments in schizophrenia

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili

The obvious symptoms of schizophrenia are hallucinations, delusions, and cognitive dysfunctions. However, schizophrenia patients have many other abnormalities, including visual impairments. Visual paradigms are versatile tools of schizophrenia research bec ...

Crowding and shape representations

Michael Herzog, Aaron Michael Clarke, Mauro Manassi

In crowding, target perception deteriorates when flanking elements are added. Crowding is traditionally characterized by target-flanker interactions which are (1) deleterious, (2) spatially confined within Bouma’s window, and (3) feature specific. Here, we ...

No correlations between the strength of visual illusions

Michael Herzog, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Aaron Michael Clarke, Fred Mast

In cognition, audition, and somatosensation, performance correlates strongly between different paradigms suggesting the existence of common factors. Surprisingly, this does not hold true for vision. For example, performance in line bisection and visual acu ...

Intact crowding and temporal masking in dyslexia

Michael Herzog, Mauro Manassi

Phonological deficits in dyslexia are well documented. However, there is an ongoing discussion about whether visual deficits limit the reading skills of people with dyslexia. Here, we investigated visual crowding and backward masking. We presented a Vernie ...

Pupil responses derived from outer and inner retinal photo reception are normal in patients with hereditary optic neuropathy

Mirjam Münch, Lorette Leon

We compared the pupil responses originating from outer versus inner retinal photoreception between patients with isolated hereditary optic neuropathy (HON, n = 8) and healthy controls (n = 8). Three different testing protocols were used. For the first two ...

Cone-Rod Dystrophy Caused by a Novel Homozygous RPE65 Mutation in Leber Congenital Amaurosis

Background: The aim of this study was to describe an unexpected phenotype in a family with Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) due to a retinal pigment epithelium-specific protein 65 kDa (RPE65) homozygous mutation. History and Signs: We analyzed a family fro ...

How good Gestalt determines low level vision

Michael Herzog

In classical models of vision, low level visual tasks are explained by low level neural mechanisms. For example, in crowding, perception of a target is impeded by nearby elements because, as it is argued, responses of neurons coding for nearby elements are ...

Act Quickly, Decide Later: Long-latency Visual Processing Underlies Perceptual Decisions but Not Reflexive Behavior

Humans largely guide their behavior by their visual representation of the world. Recent studies have shown that visual information can trigger behavior within 150 msec, suggesting that visually guided responses to external events, in fact, precede consciou ...
