An intact eye-movement system is not required to generate Inhibition of Return (2009)
Journal Article
Smith, D., Jackson, S., & Rorden, C. (2009). An intact eye-movement system is not required to generate Inhibition of Return. Journal of Neuropsychology, 3(2), 267-271. https://doi.org/10.1348/174866408x324377

AI is unable to make eye-movements and has a deficit of reflexive attention. Here, we demonstrate that despite these deficits AI exhibits inhibition of return (IOR) for peripherally cued objects and locations. These data suggest that an intact oculom...

Immediate and delayed actions share a common visuomotor transformation mechanism: A prism adaptation study (2009)
Journal Article
Rogers, G., Smith, D., & Schenk, T. (2009). Immediate and delayed actions share a common visuomotor transformation mechanism: A prism adaptation study. Neuropsychologia, 47(6), 1546-1552. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2008.12.022

It is a key assumption of the perception/action model that the dorsal stream relies on current visual input and does not store visual information over an extended period of time. Consequently, it is expected that action which is guided by memorized v... Read More about Immediate and delayed actions share a common visuomotor transformation mechanism: A prism adaptation study.

Both egocentric and allocentric cues support spatial priming in visual search (2009)
Journal Article
Ball, K., Smith, D., Ellison, A., & Schenk, T. (2009). Both egocentric and allocentric cues support spatial priming in visual search. Neuropsychologia, 47(6), 1585-1591. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2008.11.017

The perception–action model proposes that vision for perception and vision for action are subserved by two separate cortical systems, the ventral and dorsal streams, respectively [Milner, A. D., & Goodale, M. A. (1995). The visual brain in action (1s... Read More about Both egocentric and allocentric cues support spatial priming in visual search.

The bi-pedal ape: Plasticity and asymmetry in footedness (2009)
Journal Article
Carey, D., Smith, D., Martin, D., Smith, G., Skriver, J., Rutland, A., & Shepherd, J. (2009). The bi-pedal ape: Plasticity and asymmetry in footedness. Cortex, 45(5), 650-661. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cortex.2008.05.011

A strong preference for using the right foot for skilled activities parallels a similar side bias for hand use. However, many neuropsychologists, sports scientists and sports commentators argue that right-foot bias in soccer is reduced or even elimin...

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation over frontal eye fields disrupts visually cued auditory attention (2009)
Journal Article
Smith, D., Jackson, S., & Rorden, C. (2009). Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation over frontal eye fields disrupts visually cued auditory attention. Brain Stimulation, 2(2), 81-87. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.brs.2008.07.005

Voluntary eye movements and covert shifts of visual attention activate the same brain regions. Specifically, the intra parietal sulcus and the frontal eye fields (FEF) appear to be involved both with generating voluntary saccades as well with attendi...
