Visual perception relies on both selective and
constructive perceptual processes. For example,
binocular rivalry leads to the selective perception
of one of two competing monocular stimuli, whereas
visual phantom formation leads to perceptual
filling-in of a large gap between two collinearly
aligned gratings. This book explores the role of
perceptual and attentional mechanisms in binocular
rivalry and perceptual filling-in, and investigates
the neural interactions between rivalry and
filling-in to gain new insights into the nature of
these perceptual phenomena. These studies...
