Monocular and binocular mechanisms mediating flicker adaptation
Flicker adaptation reduces subsequent temporal contrast sensitivity. Recent studies show that this adaptation likely results from neural changes in the magnocellular visual pathway, but whether this adaptation occurs at a monocular or a binocular level, or both, is unclear. Here, two experiments address this question. The first experiment exploits the observation that flicker adaptation is stro...
متن کاملSeparating monocular and binocular neural mechanisms mediating chromatic contextual interactions.
When seen in isolation, a light that varies in chromaticity over time is perceived to oscillate in color. Perception of that same time-varying light may be altered by a surrounding light that is also temporally varying in chromaticity. The neural mechanisms that mediate these contextual interactions are the focus of this article. Observers viewed a central test stimulus that varied in chromatic...
متن کاملDisconjugate adaptation of saccades: contribution of binocular and monocular mechanisms
We studied the effects of prism-induced disparity on static and intrasaccadic alignment in six normal human subjects. A ten diopter base-out prism, calling for convergence, was placed in front of the central field of the right eye, so that at the center the eye viewed through the prism; at left and right, outside the prism. During 15 min of training, subjects made repetitive saccades solely in ...
متن کاملMonocular and Binocular Mechanisms of Contrast Gain Control
Prolonged stimulation by temporally modulated sinusoidal gratings causes a decrease in the contrast sensitivity and response of neurons in the visual cortex. We have studied the dynamic aspects of this contrast gain control mechanism, and how its temporal properties affect the determination of neural contrast response functions. In addition, we have considered the possibility that a single mech...
متن کاملMonocular lustre from flicker
A spot that flickers at 16 Hz between two luminance levels (on a grey surround) has an appearance of metallic lustre, which we call 'monocular lustre'. Binocular and monocular lustre were measured in comparable conditions by a rating procedure, and both were reported only when the light and dark values of the flickering (or binocularly fused) spot straddled the surround luminance, so that the s...
