Figure 1

Experimental details and results of Experiment 1. (a) Flow chart depicting the general task procedure used across experiments. (b) Illustration of the permutation test. To evaluate an effect of interest, the absolute difference in condition means was computed and evaluated against an empirical distribution compiled from the permutated values of the dataset. P values are estimated from the proportion of permutated values larger than the test statistic, depicted as less than 0.001 in this example. (c) Stimulus presentation. Monocular deprivation was conducted in the left visual hemifield, after which its effect was assessed in the left or right visual hemifield. (d) Results of Experiment 1. Indicative of spatial specificity, significant shifts in predominance were only observed in the previously deprived left hemifield. Error bars are the 95% confidence intervals and central tendencies are represented by the group mean. Asterisks represented significance level (p < 0.05: *, p < 0.01: **, p < 0.001: ***).
