Stereoscopic vision in the absence of the lateral occipital cortex (2010)
Journal Article
Read, J., Phillipson, G., Serrano-Pedraza, I., Milner, A., & Parker, A. (2010). Stereoscopic vision in the absence of the lateral occipital cortex. PLoS ONE, 5(9), Article e12608. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0012608

Both dorsal and ventral cortical visual streams contain neurons sensitive to binocular disparities, but the two streams may underlie different aspects of stereoscopic vision. Here we investigate stereopsis in the neurological patient D.F., whose vent... Read More about Stereoscopic vision in the absence of the lateral occipital cortex.

Memory and the self in autism: A review and theoretical framework (2010)
Journal Article
Lind, S. (2010). Memory and the self in autism: A review and theoretical framework. Autism, 14(5), 430-456. https://doi.org/10.1177/1362361309358700

This article reviews research on (a) autobiographical episodic and semantic memory, (b) the self-reference effect, (c) memory for the actions of self versus other (the self-enactment effect), and (d) non-autobiographical episodic memory in autism spe...

Oxytocin and human social behaviour (2010)
Journal Article
Campbell, A. (2010). Oxytocin and human social behaviour. Personality and Social Psychology Review, 14(3), 281-295. https://doi.org/10.1177/1088868310363594

Despite a general consensus that oxytocin (OT) has prosocial effects, there is no clear agreement on how these effects are achieved. Human research on OT is reviewed under three broad research initiatives: attachment and trust, social memory, and fea... Read More about Oxytocin and human social behaviour.

A body-centred frame of reference drives spatial priming in visual search (2010)
Journal Article
Ball, K., Smith, D., Ellison, A., & Schenk, T. (2010). A body-centred frame of reference drives spatial priming in visual search. Experimental Brain Research, 204(4), 585-594. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00221-010-2327-y

Spatial priming in visual search is a well-documented phenomenon. If the target of a visual search is presented at the same location in subsequent trials, the time taken to find the target at this repeated target location is significantly reduced. Pr...

Functional magnetic resonance imaging reveals the neural substrates of arm transport and grip formation in reach-to-grasp actions in humans (2010)
Journal Article
Cavina-Pratesi, C., Monaco, S., Fattori, P., Galletti, C., McAdam, T., Quinlan, D., …Culham, J. (2010). Functional magnetic resonance imaging reveals the neural substrates of arm transport and grip formation in reach-to-grasp actions in humans. Journal of Neuroscience, 30(31), 10306-10323. https://doi.org/10.1523/jneurosci.2023-10.2010

Picking up a cup requires transporting the arm to the cup (transport component) and preshaping the hand appropriately to grasp the handle (grip component). Here, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging to examine the human neural substrates of...

Evidence from visuomotor adaptation for two partially independent visuomotor systems (2010)
Journal Article
Thaler, L., & Todd, J. (2010). Evidence from visuomotor adaptation for two partially independent visuomotor systems. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 36(4), 924-935. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0017603

Visual information can specify spatial layout with respect to the observer (egocentric) or with respect to an external frame of reference (allocentric). People can use both of these types of visual spatial information to guide their hands. The questi...

Interactions between "light-from-above" and convexity priors in visual development (2010)
Journal Article
Thomas, R., Nardini, M., & Mareschal, D. (2010). Interactions between "light-from-above" and convexity priors in visual development. Journal of Vision, 10(8), https://doi.org/10.1167/10.8.6

Having a prior assumption about where light originates can disambiguate perceptual scenarios. Previous studies have reported that adult observers use a “light-from-above” prior as well as a convexity prior to constrain perception of shape from shadin...
