Improving iconic memory through contrast detection training with HOA-corrected vision

扫码查看
Iconic memory and short-term memory are not only crucial for perception and cognition,but also of great im-portance to mental health.Here,we first showed that both types of memory could be improved by improving limiting processes in visual processing through perceptual learning.Normal adults were trained in a contrast detection task for ten days,with their higher-order aberrations(HOA)corrected in real-time.We found that the training improved not only their contrast sensitivity function(CSF),but also their iconic memory and baseline information maintenance for short-term memory,and the relationship between memory and CSF improvements could be well-predicted by an observer model.These results suggest that training the limiting component of a cognitive task with visual perceptual learning could improve visual cognition.They may also provide an empirical foundation for new therapies to treat people with poor sensory memory.
