I will use Bayesian theory and a range of behavioral, psychophysical, and bio-physiological measurements to achieve this. The study intends to emphasize the impact of prior knowledge on perception and how it differs in individuals with ASD through various perceptual tasks.<\/p><p>The study examines the effect of intertrial feature priming on visual search by testing the mechanisms of target activation and distractor inhibition. It also explores feature-distribution learning by examining the effect of short-term and long-term stimuli history on visual search. Furthermore, this research will investigate the role of context in time and space, mainly through testing the serial dependence effect and spatial interference effect (visua\u00a0 crowding) in\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zainab Naaran My Ph.D. research aims to explore the differences in visual perception mechanisms between individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and their neuro-typical (NT) peers.
