Altering cortical connectivity: remediation-induced changes in the white matter of poor readers.

abstract：:A longstanding debate in binocular rivalry literature is whether the perceptual competition in rivalry occurs at an early or late stage of visual processing. Central to this debate is the determination of the source of the competition. Overwhelming evidence exists that local interocular differences can lead to binocul...
