Abstract -- Chapter 1 General Introduction -- 1.1. What is Binocular Rivalry? -- 1.2. What rivals during binocular rivalry? Eye versus Stimulus Rivalry -- 1.3. Binocular Rivalry dynamics -- 1.3.1. Phase duration distribution -- 1.3.2. Stimulus strength and the dynamics of binocular rivalry -- 1.3.3 Onset Rivalry -- 1.4. Binocular Rivalry Suppression -- 1.4.1 Visual adaptation and priming to suppressed patterns -- 1.4.2. Where does suppression take place in the visual brain? -- 1.5. Binocular Rivalry and Attention -- 1.5.1. Voluntary/Endogenous attention and binocular rivalry -- 1.5.2. Involuntary/Exogenous attention and binocular rivalry -- 1.5.3. Is attention necessary for binocular rivalry? -- Chapter 2 Cross-modal interactions during binocular rivalry -- 2.1. Introduction. Multisensory Processing -- 2.1.1. Multisensory processing in the superior colliculus (SC) -- 2.1.2. Multisensory Integration in temporal and parietal cortical areas -- 2.1.3. Cross-modal interactions in (previously thought) unisensory areas -- 2.1.4. Maximum Likelihood Estimation model of multisensory integration -- 2.1.5. Cross-modal interactions and bistable perception -- 2.2. Touch interacts with binocular rivalry at early stages of visual processing -- 2.2.1. Touch specifically interferes with the dynamics of binocular rivalry -- 2.2.2. The interaction between vision and touch during binocular rivalry is strictly tuned for orientation -- 2.2.3. Spatial proximity is crucial, active exploration is not -- 2.2.4. Summary and Conclusions -- Chapter 3 Plasticity of adult human visual cortex revealed by binocular rivalry -- 3.1. Introduction -- 3.1.1. Juvenile plasticity of the visual system: the critical period -- 3.1.2. Visual cortical plasticity in the adult -- 3.2. Brief periods of monocular deprivation disrupt ocular balance in human adult visual cortex -- 3.2.1. Results and Discussion -- 3.3. Long-term effects of monocular deprivation revealed with binocular rivalry gratings modulated in luminance and in color -- 3.3.1. Materials and Methods -- 3.3.2. Results -- 3.3.3. Discussion -- 3.3.4. Conclusions -- 3.4. Summary and Conclusions -- Chapter 4 Binocular Rivalry as a tool to monitor visual system plasticity during occlusion therapy in amblyopic children -- 4.1. Introduction -- 4.1.1. Amblyopia -- 4.1.2. Occlusion Therapy -- 4.2. Binocular Rivalry during occlusion therapy -- 4.2.1. Materials and Methods -- 4.2.2. Preliminary results -- 4.2.3. Discussion -- Chapter 5 General Conclusions -- References.
