视觉障碍的行为表现,以下双边inderior颞病变的猴子,并讨论其相关性的感知障碍的人。有人认为,在这种疾病的猴子的起源弱视领域的可能贡献还没有得到充分的研究。在12只猴子中进行了各种连续损伤对学习和保持视觉模式辨别能力的影响的调查。研究结果表明,在猴子的下颞区影响视觉辨别行为的直接相互作用,而不是在任何级别的初级视觉传入系统,而是通过与来自纹状体区的信息的相互作用。它也已被证明,每个下颞区优先相关的行为依赖于主要的视觉流入到同一半球,虽然一个给定的部门可能会与来自对面的纹状体区通过胼胝体的消息进行交互,提供了对面的颞区先前已被消融。
The behavioral manifestations of a visual disorder that follows bilateral inderior temporal lesions in the monkey are described, and their relevance to perceptual disturbances in man are discussed. It is argued that the possible contribution of areas of amblyopia in the genesis of this disorder in monkeys has not been adequately examined. An investigation of the effects of various successive lesions on the ability to learn and retain a visual pattern discrimination was undertaken in 12 monkeys. The findings suggest that in the monkey the infero-temporal regions influence visual discrimination behavior not by direct interaction at any level with the primary visual afferent system, but rather by interaction with messages proceeding from the striate areas. It has also been shown that each infero-temporal sector is preferentially related to behavior dependent upon the primary visual inflow to the same hemisphere, although a given sector may interact with messages proceeding from the opposite striate area via the corpus callosum provided that the opposite temporal area has previously been ablated.
