Postnatal Development of Function in the Mammalian Visual System
Donald E. Mitchell,Brian Timney +1 more
TL;DR: The sections in this article are: Development of Visual Perception, Functional Role of Visual Experience, Genetic and Experiential Factors in Visual Development, and Effects of Unusual Visual Input on Cortical Development.
Journal ArticleDOI
The development of vision in cats after extended periods of dark-rearing.
TL;DR: The fact that such high acuities can be achieved after periods of binocular deprivation that extend throughout the classically defined “critical period” suggest that the effect of dark-rearing is somehow to impede the natural decline with age in the degree to which cortical neurones are susceptible to environmental modification.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Behavioural Technique for the Rapid Assessment of the Visual Capabilities of Kittens
TL;DR: A behavioural method is described for the measurement of various visual spatial acuities in kittens as young as thirty days of age and applications are given of applications of the technique to measurement of the visual acuity for gratings in normal kittens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meridional anisotropies of orientation discrimination for sine wave gratings.
D.W. Heeley,Brian Timney +1 more
TL;DR: Comparison threshold measurements with the same set of stimuli confirmed earlier reports that the meridional anisotropy for contrast detection increases with test spatial frequency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visual acuity in the horse
Brian Timney,Kathy Keil +1 more
TL;DR: The obtained values suggest that the resolution acuity of the horse is limited by ganglion cell density in the temporal portion of the narrow visual streak.
