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 visualmechanisms, to determine how these changes constrain performance in complex tasks, and to link changes in perception to physiological changes in the brain.

正常健康老龄化对视觉感知的影响对高级心理功能和生活质量有重要影响。这项更新申请的目的是加深我们对衰老如何影响我们检测和区分视觉模式的能力的理解，并研究衰老的影响如何受到注意力分散的影响。这些研究的结果将有助于我们定量估计基本视觉机制中与年龄相关的变化，以确定这些变化如何限制复杂任务的表现，并将感知的变化与大脑的生理变化联系起来。
