Alpha peak frequency affects visual performance beyond temporal resolution

Michael Herzog, David Pascucci, Maya Roinishvili, Maëlan Quentin Menétrey

Recent work suggests that the individual alpha peak frequency (IAPF) reflects the temporal resolution of visual processing: individuals with higher IAPF can segregate stimuli at shorter intervals compared to those with lower IAPF. However, this evidence ma ...

Bistable Perception Discriminates Between Depressive Patients, Controls, Schizophrenia Patients, and Their Siblings

Michael Herzog, Simona Adele Garobbio, Maya Roinishvili

Background and Hypothesis Individuals with schizophrenia have less priors than controls, meaning they rely less upon their prior experiences to interpret the current stimuli. These differences in priors are expected to show as higher alternation rates in b ...

Embedded figures in schizophrenia: A main deficit but no specificity

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Michel Akselrod

Visual deficits are core deficits of schizophrenia. Classically, deficits are determined with demanding psychophysical tasks requiring fine-grained spatial or temporal resolution. Less is known about holistic processing. Here, we employed the Leuven Embedd ...

The EEG multiverse of schizophrenia

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz, Patricia Figueiredo, Wei-Hsiang Lin, Dario Alejandro Gordillo Lopez

Research on schizophrenia typically focuses on one paradigm for which clear-cut differences between patients and controls are established. Great efforts are made to understand the underlying genetical, neurophysiological, and cognitive mechanisms, which ev ...

The shine-through paradigm and the schizophrenia spectrum: a summary

Michael Herzog, Simona Adele Garobbio, Maya Roinishvili, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz

In the past 10 years, our laboratory has proved the shine-through paradigm to be a very sensitive endophenotype for schizophrenia. The shine-through paradigm is a visual backward masking task, where the target is a vertical vernier followed by a 25-element ...

About common factors in vision

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Simona Adele Garobbio, Maya Roinishvili, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Dario Alejandro Gordillo Lopez, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz

Often, we intuitively assume that there are common factors in life. For example, we test people with a visual acuity test to determine whether they are allowed to drive a car or not- with the implicit assumption that the acuity test is representative of vi ...

Electrophysiological correlates of visual backward masking in patients with bipolar disorder

Michael Herzog, Simona Adele Garobbio, Maya Roinishvili, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz

In visual backward masking (VBM), a target is followed by a mask that decreases target discriminability. Schizophrenia patients (SZ) show strong and reproducible masking impairments, which are associated with reduced EEG amplitudes. Patients with bipolar d ...

Neural Compensation Mechanisms of Siblings of Schizophrenia Patients as Revealed by High-Density EEG

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz, Patricia Figueiredo, Albulena Jashari-Shaqiri

Visual backward masking (VBM) deficits are candidate endophenotypes of schizophrenia indexing genetic liability of the disorder. In VBM, a target is followed by a mask that deteriorates target perception. Schizophrenia patients and, to a lesser extent, the ...

Universal Patterns in Color-Emotion Associations Are Further Shaped by Linguistic and Geographic Proximity

Amer Chamseddine, Christine Mohr, Maya Roinishvili, Ahmad Abu-Akel, Meng Zhang, Niloufar Pouyan

Many of us "see red," "feel blue," or "turn green with envy." Are such color-emotion associations fundamental to our shared cognitive architecture, or are they cultural creations learned through our languages and traditions? To answer these questions, we t ...

EEG microstates are a candidate endophenotype for schizophrenia

Michael Herzog, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Christine Mohr, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz, Maya Roinishvili, Patricia Figueiredo

Electroencephalogram microstates are recurrent scalp potential configurations that remain stable for around 90 ms. The dynamics of two of the four canonical classes of microstates, commonly labeled as C and D, have been suggested as a potential endophenoty ...
