Characterizing the role of disparity information in alleviating visual crowding (2014)
Journal Article
Astle, A. T., McGovern, D. P., & McGraw, P. V. (2014). Characterizing the role of disparity information in alleviating visual crowding. Journal of Vision, 14(6), Article 8. https://doi.org/10.1167/14.6.8

The ability to identify a target is reduced by the presence of nearby objects, a phenomenon known as visual crowding. The extent to which crowding impairs our perception is generally governed by the degree of similarity between a target stimulus and...

The challenges of developing a contrast-based video game for treatment of amblyopia (2014)
Journal Article
Hussain, Z., Astle, A. T., Webb, B. S., & McGraw, P. V. (2014). The challenges of developing a contrast-based video game for treatment of amblyopia. Frontiers in Psychology, 5(OCT), Article 1210. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2014.01210

© 2014 Hussain, Astle, Webb and Mcgraw. Perceptual learning of visual tasks is emerging as a promising treatment for amblyopia, a developmental disorder of vision characterized by poor monocular visual acuity. The tasks tested thus far span the gamut... Read More about The challenges of developing a contrast-based video game for treatment of amblyopia.

The Effect of Aging on Crowded Letter Recognition in the Peripheral Visual Field (2014)
Journal Article
Astle, A. T., Blighe, A. J., Webb, B. S., & McGraw, P. V. (2014). The Effect of Aging on Crowded Letter Recognition in the Peripheral Visual Field. Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science, 55(8), 5039-5045. https://doi.org/10.1167/iovs.14-14181

Purpose.: Crowding describes the increased difficulty in identifying a target object when it is surrounded by nearby objects (flankers). A recent study investigated the effect of age on visual crowding and found equivocal results: Although crowded vi...

The influence of spatial pattern on visual short-term memory for contrast (2014)
Journal Article
Xing, Y., Ledgeway, T., McGraw, P. V., & Schluppeck, D. (2014). The influence of spatial pattern on visual short-term memory for contrast. Attention, Perception, and Psychophysics, 76(7), https://doi.org/10.3758/s13414-014-0671-x

Several psychophysical studies of visual short-term memory (VSTM) have shown high-fidelity storage capacity for many properties of visual stimuli. On judgments of the spatial frequency of gratings, for example, discrimination performance does not dec... Read More about The influence of spatial pattern on visual short-term memory for contrast.
