Linking propositions have played an important role in refining our understanding of the relationship between neural activity and perception. Over the last 40 years, visual evoked potentials (VEPs) have been used in many different ways to address questions of the relationship between neural activity and perception. This review organizes and discusses this research within the linking proposition framework developed by Davida Teller, and her colleagues. A series of examples from the VEP literature illustrates each of the five classes of linking propositions originally proposed by Davida Teller. The related concept of the bridge locus-the site at which neural activity can be said to first be proscriptive of perception-is discussed and a suggestion is made that the concept be expanded to include an evolution over time and cortical area.
关联命题在深化我们对神经活动与感知之间关系的理解方面发挥了重要作用。在过去的40年里,视觉诱发电位(VEP)已被以多种不同方式用于解决神经活动与感知之间关系的问题。本综述在由达维达·泰勒及其同事提出的关联命题框架内对这一研究进行了组织和讨论。来自VEP文献的一系列示例阐释了达维达·泰勒最初提出的五类关联命题中的每一类。文中讨论了桥接位点的相关概念——即可以说神经活动首先对感知具有规定性的位点——并提出将该概念扩展以包括随时间和皮层区域的演变。
