Temporal Analysis of Visual Search Task by Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

摘要：

In this study, we examined the temporal aspects of the right posterior parietal cortex in easy feature pop-out visual search using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). The transcranial magnetic stimulations were applied over the right posterior parietal cortex of subjects. Subjects received 4 tests which the TMS onset times were set as 100, 150, 200 and 250 msec after visual stimulus presentation. We found that, when SOA=150 msec, compared to no-TMS condition, there was a significant elevation in response time when the TMS pluses were applied. However for the other SOA cases, there was no significant difference between TMS and no-TMS conditions. Therefore, we considered that pop-out visual search was processed in the right posterior parietal cortex at about 150 msec after stimulus present.
