Constraints on perceptual learning: objects and dimensions

Felice L. Bedford
- 01 Mar 1995 - 
- Vol. 54, Iss: 3, pp 253-297
TLDR
The view suggests a new interpretation of the McCollough effect and accounts for findings difficult to account for in other interpretations including which stimuli can successfully lead to contingent after-effects, the outcome of correlation manipulations, and why the effect exists at all.

A sensorimotor account of vision and visual consciousness-Authors' Response-Acting out our sensory experience

TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose that the brain produces an internal representation of the world, and the activation of this internal representation is assumed to give rise to the experience of seeing, but it leaves unexplained how the existence of such a detailed internal representation might produce visual consciousness.

Visual Recalibration of Auditory Speech Identification A McGurk Aftereffect

TL;DR: It is shown that exposure to incongruent audiovisual speech (producing the well-known McGurk effect) can recalibrate auditory speech identification and reveal selective speech adaptation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deficit in learning of a motor skill requiring strategy, but not of perceptuomotor recalibration, with aging.

TL;DR: Older participants showed impaired learning of the strategic task but not of the nonstrategic task, in line with the suggestion that the effect of aging on learning and memory may be to reduce working memory resources.
Journal ArticleDOI

Learning to Smell the Roses: Experience-Dependent Neural Plasticity in Human Piriform and Orbitofrontal Cortices

TL;DR: It is suggested that neural representations of odor quality can be rapidly updated through mere perceptual experience, a mechanism that may underlie the development of odor perception.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a taxonomy of the Big Five Trait Taxonomy of personality traits and its relationship with the human brain. But the taxonomy does not consider the relationship between the brain and the human personality.

The Adapted mind : evolutionary psychology and the generation of culture

TL;DR: The Adapted Mind as discussed by the authors explores evolutionary psychology and its implications for a new view of culture, in which the traditional view of the mind as a general-purpose computer, tabula rasa or passive recipient of culture is being replaced by the view that the mind resembles an intricate network of functionally specialized computers, each of which imposes contentful structure on human mental organization and culture.
