Pupil dilation as an index of preferred mutual gaze duration (2016)
Journal Article

Most animals look at each other to signal threat or interest. In humans, this social interaction is usually punctuated with brief periods of mutual eye contact. Deviations from this pattern of gazing behaviour generally make us feel uncomfortable and... Read More about Pupil dilation as an index of preferred mutual gaze duration.

Difference magnitude is not measured by discrimination steps for order of point patterns (2016)
Journal Article
Protonotarios, E. D., Johnston, A., & Griffin, L. D. (2016). Difference magnitude is not measured by discrimination steps for order of point patterns. Journal of Vision, 16(9), https://doi.org/10.1167/16.9.2

We have shown in previous work that the perception of order in point patterns is consistent with an interval scale structure (Protonotarios, Baum, Johnston, Hunter, & Griffin, 2014). The psychophysical scaling method used relies on the confusion betw... Read More about Difference magnitude is not measured by discrimination steps for order of point patterns.

Time order reversals and saccades (2016)

Ballistic eye movements, or saccades, present a major challenge to the visual system. They generate a rapid blur of movement across the surface of the retinae that is rarely consciously seen, as awareness of input is suppressed around the time of a s...

Changes in apparent duration follow shifts in perceptual timing (2015)
Journal Article

It is well established that the apparent duration of moving visual objects is greater at higher as compared to slower speeds. Here we report the effects of acceleration and deceleration on the perceived duration of a drifting grating with average spe...

Illusory feature slowing: evidence for perceptual models of global facial change (2015)
Journal Article

Upright static faces are widely thought to recruit holistic representations, whereby individual features are integrated into nondecomposable wholes for recognition and interpretation. In contrast, little is known about the perceptual integration of d... Read More about Illusory feature slowing: evidence for perceptual models of global facial change.

Visual motion induces a forward prediction of spatial pattern (2011)
Journal Article
Roach, N. W., McGraw, P. V., & Johnston, A. (2011). Visual motion induces a forward prediction of spatial pattern. Current Biology, 21(9), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2011.03.031

Cortical motion analysis continuously encodes image velocity but might also be used to predict future patterns of sensory input along the motion path. We asked whether this predictive aspect of motion is exploited by the human visual system. Targets... Read More about Visual motion induces a forward prediction of spatial pattern.
