The goal of my Ph.D. project was the investigation of the neuronal correlate underlying blindsight. Blindsight is a visual phenomenon whereby hemianopic patients are able to unconsciously process visual information in their blind visual field. Previous research demonstrating its existence in hemianopic patients has been criticized for the nature of the paradigms used, for the presence of methodological artifacts, and for the possibility that spared islands of visual cortex may have sustained the phenomenon. In the behavioural part of my Ph.D. project, I modified a paradigm in which the simultaneous presentation of an unseen stimulus can alter the mean reaction time to a seen stimulus (Spatial Summation Effect). The aim was to test the proce...
