The effects of normal healthy aging on visual perception have important impacts on higher-level mental functions and quality of life. The objective of this renewal application is to deepen our understanding of how aging affects our ability to detect and discriminate visual patterns, and examine how the effects of aging are influenced by dividing attention.The results of these studies will help us to derive quantitative estimates of age-related changes in fundamental visual mechanisms, to determine how these changes constrain performance in complex tasks, and to link changes in perception to physiological changes in the brain.

正常健康衰老对视觉感知的影响有重要影响 关于更高水平的精神功能和生活质量。这次更新的目标是 应用是加深我们对衰老如何影响我们的能力的理解 检测和辨别视觉模式，并检查衰老的影响 受注意力分散的影响。这些研究的结果将有助于我们 得出与年龄相关的基本视力变化的定量估计 机制，以确定这些更改如何约束复杂环境中的性能 任务，并将知觉的变化与大脑的生理变化联系起来。
