Functional Specialization in the Lower and Upper Visual Fields in Humans: Its Ecological Origins and Neurophysiological Implications

TL;DR: In this article, the functional differences between near and far visual space are correlated with their disproportionate representations in the dorsal and ventral divisions of visual association cortex, respectively, and in the magnocellular and parvocellular pathways that project to them.
Journal ArticleDOI

The neuropsychology of 3-D space

TL;DR: This model can help explain the 3-D imbalances in prominant neuropsychological disorders and regulated neurochemically with dopaminergic and cholinergic excitation associated with extrapersonal activation and noradrenergic and serotonergic excite associated with peripersonalactivation.
Journal ArticleDOI

A general theory concerning the prenatal origins of cerebral lateralization in humans.

TL;DR: The origins of cerebral lateralization in humans are traced to the asymmetric prenatal development of the ear and labyrinth, whereas the failure to develop clear vestibular asymmetry may underlie the poor motoric lateralization found in several neurodevelopmental disorders.

Spatial Orientation in Flight

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of human spatial orientational mechanisms and how those mechanisms fail in flight can be found in this article, including definitions, types, causes, examples, statistics, and methods of preventing spatial disorientation mishaps.
Book

Spatial Disorientation in Aviation

TL;DR: Spatial disorientation has been blamed for 20% of all fatal mishaps in military aviation and has been named as a factor in many high-profile civilian accidents, such as the death of John F. Kennedy Jr. and his wife, Carolyn Bessette Kennedy.
