The motion aftereffect is a powerful illusion of motion in the visual image caused by prior
exposure to motion in the opposite direction. For example, when one looks at the rocks …

In this chapter we consider some potential high-level influences on the strength and
direction of the motion aftereffect (MAE), and their implications for psychophysical and …

Choice behavior on simple sensory-motor tasks can exhibit trial-to-trial dependencies. For
perceptual tasks, these dependencies reflect the influence of prior trials on choices that are …

We studied perceptual learning in motion discrimination when the brain's middle temporal
area (MT/V5) was functionally suppressed. This was achieved by using the “paired-dots” …

The middle temporal area of the extrastriate visual cortex (area MT) is integral to motion
perception and is thought to play a key role in the perceptual learning of motion tasks. We …

A stationary stimulus is perceived to drift in the opposite direction after adaptation to a
moving stimulus (static motion aftereffect (MAE)). It is commonly assumed that positional …

We found that the motion aftereffect measured using a directionally ambiguous
counterphase grating (flicker MAE) can be stronger when it is measured for the non-adapted …

Activation of the human visual motion area V5/MT was previously thought to be the basis of
the motion aftereffect. New findings suggest that previous observations were confounded by …

This study investigated the influence of five days of moderate intensity aerobic exercise on
the acquisition and consolidation of visual perceptual learning using a motion direction …

It was previously shown that sensitivity improvements to a task-irrelevant motion direction
can be obtained when it is presented in concurrence with observers' performance of an …
