Spatial Vision - Call for Submissions

The Editors of Spatial Vision are pleased to announce a Call for Submissions to a special feature issue of Spatial Vision on the role of signal detection theory in studies of perceptual systems, including contrast perception, learning, attention and decision.

The focus is on the applications of signal detection theory to basic issues in vision, rather than on purely mathematical or modeling exercises. We invite studies from different disciplines, including psychophysical, cognitive, neurophysiological, neuroimaging, and computational.

Theoretical, empirical and applied studies are all welcome. Studies the cut across more than one discipline or that compare data and theory are especially welcome.

The special feature issue on signal detection theory will be edited by Zhong-Lin Lu and Rhea Eskew. Please send your manuscript directly to Zhong-Lin Lu for the issue.

Electronic submissions, either in Word or in PDF format, are highly preferred, although submission of a hard-copy paper is acceptable. (If a hard-copy manuscript is submitted, please notify Zhong-Lin Lu by email that the manuscript has been sent. )

See SPATIAL VISION

for instructions on the format of submitted manuscripts.

NEW Deadline for submission is February 1, 2006.
