Cross-modal plasticity: where and how?

D Bavelier, HJ Neville - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2002 - nature.com

effects on the development of the remaining modalities. Although recent studies of deaf and …

[图书][B] The neural bases of multisensory processes

MM Murray, MT Wallace - 2011 - taylorfrancis.com

Cross-modal plasticity in specific auditory cortices underlies visual compensations in the deaf

SG Lomber, MA Meredith, A Kral - Nature neuroscience, 2010 - nature.com
When the brain is deprived of input from one sensory modality, it often compensates with
supranormal performance in one or more of the intact sensory systems. In the absence of …

Do deaf individuals see better?

D Bavelier, MWG Dye, PC Hauser - Trends in cognitive sciences, 2006 - cell.com
The possibility that, following early auditory deprivation, the remaining senses such as vision
are enhanced has been met with much excitement. However, deaf individuals exhibit both …

Changes in the spatial distribution of visual attention after early deafness

J Proksch, D Bavelier - Journal of cognitive neuroscience, 2002 - direct.mit.edu

The role of visual experience for the neural basis of spatial cognition

A Pasqualotto, MJ Proulx - Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2012 - Elsevier
Blindness often results in the adaptive neural reorganization of the remaining modalities,

The effects of spatial attention on motion processing in deaf signers, hearing signers, and hearing nonsigners

RG Bosworth, KR Dobkins - Brain and cognition, 2002 - Elsevier
Visual abilities in deaf individuals may be altered as a result of auditory deprivation and/or
