چکیده

Rod influence on hue discrimination was assessed by the Farnsworth–Munsell 100-hue test. Rod influence was taken as the difference in error scores obtained after complete dark adaptation and during the cone plateau at three mesopic (23, 9, 3 td) and one standard (158 td) light level. On the FM 100, rods produced a differential discrimination loss along a tritan axis as compared with a red–green axis without any bias toward a rod confusion axis. Rods appear to impair discrimination mediated by S-cone pathways, which at moderate levels of illumination can differentially elevate tritan errors on the FM 100. © 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Scotopic vision in colour-blinds

Alleles causing colour-blindness are present in humans at non-negligible levels, and it is not yet understood how colour-blindness is maintained, since colour-vision probably provides a selective advantage, e.g. when foraging. We show that after dark-adaptation colour-blinds had lower light perception thresholds than colour-normals (0.44 log-units), which may give a selective advantage under sc...

Modulation sensitivity of ganglion cells in peripheral retina of macaque

There is ample psychophysical evidence that flicker is more salient in the peripheral than the central visual field, but the physiological basis of this eccentricity-dependant change is unclear. Here, we compared responsivity to temporal modulation of ganglion cells in central and peripheral primate retina. Above 30 Hz modulation frequency, both magnocellular (MC) and parvocellular (PC) pathway...

Analysis of pharmacologically isolated components of the ERG

An harmonic analysis was applied to the electroretinogram (ERG) measured in intact cat eyes in control conditions and after pharmacological isolation of the components attributed to photoreceptors (PIII) and bipolar neurons (PII). The frequency response curves obtained in various conditions showed that the bandwidth of the PII component extends over a range of stimulus frequencies higher than t...

Gaze-shift dynamics in two kinds of sequential looking tasks

Gaze-shift dynamics of unrestrained seated subjects were examined. The subjects participated in two tasks. In the first task, they tapped sequences of 3-D targets located on a table in front of them. In the second task, they only looked at similar sequences of targets. The purpose of the task (tapping vs only looking) affected the dynamics of gaze-shifts. Gaze and eye-in-head peak velocities we...
