Visual System Part 4 Flashcards
Dorsal processing is associated with this processing
Spatial
Ventral processing is associated with what processing
Object
Ventral stream consists of
Cones (parvocellular)
-what form, color, orientation
Dorsal stream consists of
Rods (magnocellular)
- dim light and movement
- how and where
Working memory takes place in the
prefrontal cortex
-using information to make decisions
In regards to formation of objects these cortexes function for this (V2 and V4):
V2: anges between lines, orientation of illusory contours
V4: color, complex outline-shapes
Inferotemporal cortex is responsible for
total visual field: corpus callosum
shape/color of complex shape
-emotional expression
Short or long term memory modified by experience via this system
Limbic
Develop sense of familiarity with this structure
Inferotemporal cortex
Path of visual information passing
V1–> V2/V4–> IT –> Naming output with semantic properties
