[visionlist] Vision Research Feature Issue on "Testing Vision"

[Susana Chung]

Call for papers: Vision Research Feature Issue

Testing Vision: From Lab Psychophysical Tests to Clinical Evaluations

Vision Research will be publishing a feature issue based on the  
symposium “Testing Vision: From Lab Psychophysical Tests to Clinical  
Evaluations” held at ARVO 2012.  All seven speakers of the symposium  
(see list below) have kindly agreed to contribute to the feature issue.

Sheila K. West, PhD, "Understanding functional impairment and  
disability requires multiple measures of vision"

Ian L. Bailey, OD, DSc, "Visual acuity testing"

Denis G. Pelli, PhD, "Contrast sensitivity testing"

Chris A. Johnson, PhD, "The psychophysical basis for perimetry and  
visual field testing"

Jay Neitz, PhD, "Color vision testing"

Cynthia Owsley, PhD, MSPH, "Visual processing speed"

Gary S. Rubin, PhD, "Measuring reading performance"

To provide a more comprehensive coverage of the different types of  
clinical visual function evaluation, Vision Research is soliciting  
general submission to the feature issue.  As a goal to maintain  
consistency of the papers, general submission must follow the same  
structure as those of the invited speakers of the symposium —  
providing a rich history, a theoretical basis and a framework for  
achieving practical outcomes of the visual function to be discussed.

Guest editors for the feature issue are Stephen Burns, Susana Chung,  
Dennis Levi and Gary Rubin.

Submission must be prepared according to Vision Research’s Guide for  
Authors, and submitted online via http://ees.elsevier.com/vr/

All submissions must be received by August 31, 2012.
