Abstract

In order to reveal cognitive processing of sensory information in binocular rivalry, visual evoked potentials (VEP) were recorded using pattern reversal stimulus to received side and the other side of visual field. VEP components were observed by evoking stimulus to non-received side of visual field. Results show that the processed information projected to visual cortex does not always generate subjective visual experience.
