    vision Article The Dominant Eye: Dominant for Parvo- But Not for Magno-Biased Stimuli? Brian K. Foutch 1,* and Carl J. Bassi 2 1 Rosenberg School of Optometry, University of the Incarnate Word, San Antonio, TX 78209, USA 2 College of Optometry, University of Missouri-St Louis, St. Louis, MO 63121, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-210-930-8162 Received: 4 September 2019; Accepted: 8 March 2020; Published: 12 March 2020 Abstract: Eye dominance is often defined as a preference for the visual input of one eye to the other. Implicit in this definition is the dominant eye has better visual function. Several studies have investigated the effect of visual direction or defocus on ocular dominance, but there is less evidence connecting ocular dominance and monocular visual thresholds. We used the classic “hole in card” method to determine the dominant eye for 28 adult observers (11 males and 17 females). We then compared contrast thresholds between the dominant and non-dominant eyes using grating stimuli biased to be processed more strongly either by the magnocellular (MC) or parvocellular (PC) pathway. Using non-parametric mean rank tests, the dominant eye was more sensitive overall than the non-dominant eye to both stimuli (z = 2.54, p = 0.01). The dominant eye was also more sensitive − to the PC-biased stimulus (z = 2.22, p = 0.03) but not the MC-biased stimulus (z = 1.16, p = 0.25). We − − discuss the clinical relevance of these results as well as the implications for parallel visual pathways. Keywords: dominant eye; contrast; parvocellular; magnocellular 1.

Variables determining the number of native and alien plants on arable land in Central Europe are identi®ed. Species richness of 698 samples of weed ¯oras recorded in the Czech Republic in plots of a standard size of 100 m2 in 1955±2000 was studied in relation to altitudinally based ¯oristic region, soil type, type of cultivated crop, climatic variables, altitude, year of the record, crop cover and height, and human population density in the region. Vascular plant species were classi®ed into native and alien, the latter divided in archaeophytes, introduced before AD 1500, and neophytes, introduced after this date. The use of minimal adequate models in the analysis of covariance allowed determination of the net effects of mutually correlated environmental variables. Models for particular species groups explained 33±48% of variation in species numbers and 27±51% in propor- tions; however, explanatory variables affected native species, archaeophytes, and neophytes differently.

  • Biology Has Been Taught at Bristol – As Botany and Zoology – Since Before the University Was Founded in 1909
    Biology has been taught at Bristol – as Botany and Zoology – since before the University was founded in 1909. Bristol has made significant contributions to many fields, from animal cognition and medicinal plants to entomology, evolutionary Game Theory and bird flight – and the BBC Natural History Unit's proximity to the University has led to television careers for a number of graduates! In 1876, University College, the precursor to the University, appointed Dr. Frederick Adolph Leipner as Lecturer in Botany, Zoology and, amusingly, German. Leipner had trained at the Bristol Medical School, but taught botany and natural philosophy, later combining this with teaching in Vegetable Physiology at the Medical School. He became Professor of Botany in 1884 and was a founding member of the Bristol Naturalists' Society, becoming its President in 1893. Bristol today is proud of its interdisciplinary strengths and, among others, offers Joint Honours Degrees in Geology and Biology, and in Psychology and Zoology. A portent of these modern links is seen in one of the University's most notable early appointments, Conwy Lloyd Morgan, appointed as Professor of Zoology and Geology in 1884 and then – somehow fitting in service as Vice- Chancellor – becoming the first Chair in Psychology (and Ethics). Lloyd Morgan is most famous as a pioneer of the study of comparative animal cognition. He was a highly influential figure for the North American Behaviourist movement: “Lloyd Morgan's cannon” is a comparative psychologist's version of Occam's Razor whereby no behaviour should be ascribed to more complex cognitive mechanisms than strictly necessary. He was the first Fellow of the Royal Society to be elected for psychological work.
