Can common functional gene variants affect visual discrimination in metacontrast masking?

PloS one - 1 Jan 2013

Maksimov Margus, Vaht Mariliis, Harro Jaanus, Bachmann Talis

Abstract excerpt

Mechanisms of visual perception should be robustly fast and provide veridical information about environmental objects in order to facilitate survival and successful coping. Because species-specific brain mechanisms for fast vision must have evolved under heavy pressure for efficiency, it has been held that different human individuals see the physical world in the same way and produce psychophysical functions of...
