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...

Arm position does not attenuate visual loss in patients with homonymous field deficits (2008)
Journal Article
Smith, D., Lane, A., & Schenk, T. (2008). Arm position does not attenuate visual loss in patients with homonymous field deficits. Neuropsychologia, 46(9), 2320-2325. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2008.03.010

One of the most common and debilitating consequences of stroke is the loss of vision in the contralesional visual field. Clinicians typically regard this loss as irreversible and attempts at visual restoration have delivered only small and unreliable...

Reflexive attention attenuates change blindness (but only briefly) (2008)
Journal Article
Smith, D., & Schenk, T. (2008). Reflexive attention attenuates change blindness (but only briefly). Perception & psychophysics, 70(3), 489-495. https://doi.org/10.3758/pp.70.3.489

Humans are remarkably insensitive to large changes in a visual display if the change occurs simultaneously with a secondary perceptual event. A widely held view is that this change blindness occurs because the secondary perceptual event prevents the... Read More about Reflexive attention attenuates change blindness (but only briefly).

Clinical treatment options for patients with homonymous visual field defects (2008)
Journal Article
Lane, A., Smith, D., & Schenk, T. (2008). Clinical treatment options for patients with homonymous visual field defects. Clinical Ophthalmology, 2(1), 93-102. https://doi.org/10.2147/opth.s2371

The objective of this review is to evaluate treatments for homonymous visual field defects (HVFDs). We distinguish between three treatments: visual restoration training (VRT), optical aids, and compensatory training. VRT is both the most ambitious an...

Enhanced probe discrimination at the location of a colour singleton (2007)
Journal Article
Smith, D., & Schenk, T. (2007). Enhanced probe discrimination at the location of a colour singleton. Experimental Brain Research, 181(2), 367-375. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00221-007-0937-9

There is ample evidence to suggest that preparing to saccade to a location is sufficient to produce attentional shifts to this location. However, it is not clear whether engagement of the eye-movement system is also a necessary condition for any spat...

Saccade-contingent spatial and temporal errors are absent for saccadic head movements (2005)
Journal Article
Jackson, S., Newport, R., Osborne, F., Wakely, R., Smith, D., & Walsh, V. (2005). Saccade-contingent spatial and temporal errors are absent for saccadic head movements. Cortex, 41(2), 205-212. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0010-9452%2808%2970895-5

Psychophysical studies extending over a thirty-year period have repeatedly demonstrated that visual stimuli presented close to the onset of a saccadic eye movement are mislocalised both spatially and temporally. When post-saccadic visual references a... Read More about Saccade-contingent spatial and temporal errors are absent for saccadic head movements.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation of the left human frontal eye fields eliminates the cost of invalid endogenous cues (2005)
Journal Article
Smith, D., Jackson, S., & Rorden, C. (2005). Transcranial magnetic stimulation of the left human frontal eye fields eliminates the cost of invalid endogenous cues. Neuropsychologia, 43(9), 1288-1296. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2004.12.003

Humans are able to selectively attend to specific regions of space without moving their eyes. However, there is mounting evidence that these covert shifts of attention may employ many of the same brain regions involved when executing the eye movement...

Exogenous orienting of attention depends upon the ability to execute eye movements (2004)
Journal Article
Smith, D., Rorden, C., & Jackson, S. (2004). Exogenous orienting of attention depends upon the ability to execute eye movements. Current Biology, 14(9), 792-795. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2004.04.035

Shifts of attention can be made overtly by moving the eyes or covertly with attention being allocated to a region of space that does not correspond to the current direction of gaze. However, the precise relationship between eye movements and the cove... Read More about Exogenous orienting of attention depends upon the ability to execute eye movements.
