Visual Mental Imagery

A growing number of studies show that visual mental imagery recruits the same brain areas as visual perception. Although the necessity of hV5/MT+ for motion perception has been revealed by means of TMS, its relevance for motion imagery remains unclear. We induced a direction-selective adaptation in hV5/MT+ by means of an MAE while subjects performed a mental rotation task that elicits imagined motion. We concurrently measured behavioral performance and neural activity with fMRI, enabling us to directly assess the effect of a perturbation of hV5/MT+ on other cortical areas involved in the mental rotation task. The activity in hV5/MT+ increased as more mental rotation was required, and the perturbation of hV5/MT+ affected behavioral performance as well as the neural activity in this area. Moreover, several regions in the posterior parietal cortex were also affected by this perturbation. Our results show that hV5/MT+ is required for imagined visual motion and engages in an interaction with parietal cortex during this cognitive process.

Good Agreement

Motion aftereffect (MAE) is a negative aftereffect caused by prolonged viewing of visual motion: after gazing at a moving grating for a while, a stationary image will appear to move in the opposite direction (Ashida and Osaka, 1995 Vision Research35 1825). Evoked magnetic field (magnetoencephalogram: MEG) was measured on a human subject observing visual motion and MAE. Magnetic evoked field (80 averagings) was measured from 37 points over occipital and parietal areas (Magnes SQUID biomagnetometer, BTi) during watching a horizontally moving sinusoidal grating with low spatial frequency (2 cycles deg−1 with 5 Hz: motion condition) and immediately after stopping the moving grating (MAE condition). Dipole estimates based on equal magnetic field contour suggest that the main loci subserving visual motion and MAE appear to be the surrounding region over occipital and parietal areas in the human brain. Further analysis is now underway. In general, this appears to be in good agreement with another study using fMRI-based MAE measures [Tootell et al, 1995 Nature (London)375 139] in which a clear increase in activity in these areas was observed when subjects viewed MAE.

Recovery Function

Visual motion aftereffect characteristics comparable to those associated with rotary and translatory movement of a test field are demonstrated for simulated rectilinear motion of the observer. The intensity and time duration of the phenomenon are shown to be positively correlated. The implications of this for individual observers are considered. The results of this experiment are correlated with those for adaptation and for recovery from adaptation that were obtained from the same group of observers. The findings are shown to support the hypothesis that visual motion aftereffect is a manifestation of the adaptation recovery function of velocity sensitive mechanisms.
