  3. Why is motion perception an interesting topic here? • Atkinson et al (1997, 2003): dorsal breakdown behind WS (based on poor performance on a single motion task: motion coherence) • However: Motion perception is not a unitary function!!! • Therefore: It is important to look at subfunctions

  4. Different classes of motion perception • – different neural circuitries: • motion coherence: V5/MT (dorsal) • biological motion: STS (both ventral and dorsal) • form from motion: V5/MT – V4/LO - IT

  6. Conclusions: • Not a general motion deficit in WS • Cannot be attributed to dorsal dysfunction
