Developmental dyslexia: passive visual stimulation provides no evidence for a magnocellular processing defect.

abstract：:Recent behavioral and neuroscientific evidence speaks to the question of whether the human focus of attention is limited to a single item or can accommodate several items. This issue is fundamental to an understanding of the nature of human cognition and brain function. Here I review evidence from visual working memor...
