The rapid emergence of stimulus specific perceptual learning (2012)
Journal Article
Hussain, Z., McGraw, P. V., Sekuler, A. B., & Bennett, P. J. (2012). The rapid emergence of stimulus specific perceptual learning. Frontiers in Psychology, 3(226), https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2012.00226

Is stimulus specific perceptual learning the result of extended practice or does it emerge early in the time course of learning? We examined this issue by manipulating the amount of practice given on a face identification task on Day 1, and altering...

Perceptual learning reduces crowding in amblyopia and in the normal periphery (2012)
Journal Article
Hussain, Z., Webb, B. S., Astle, A. T., & McGraw, P. V. (2012). Perceptual learning reduces crowding in amblyopia and in the normal periphery. Journal of Neuroscience, 32(2), https://doi.org/10.1523/JNEUROSCI.3845-11.2012

Amblyopia is a developmental visual disorder of cortical origin, characterized by crowding and poor acuity in central vision of the affected eye. Crowding refers to the adverse effects of surrounding items on object identification, common only in nor...

Size-induced distortions in perceptual maps of visual space (2012)
Journal Article
McGraw, P. V., Roach, N. W., Badcock, D. R., & Whitaker, D. (2012). Size-induced distortions in perceptual maps of visual space. Journal of Vision, 12(4), https://doi.org/10.1167/12.4.8

In order to interact with our environment, the human brain constructs maps of visual space. The orderly mapping of external space across the retinal surface, termed retinotopy, is maintained at subsequent levels of visual cortical processing and unde...
