Interocular transfer of a chromatic frequency shift: temporal constraints. 1984

O E Favreau, and P Cavanagh

Interocular transfer of a chromatic version of the Blakemore and Sutton (1969) [Science 166, 245-247] spatial frequency shift is not obtained with long steady (3000 msec) test presentation, but does occur when the test is brief (400 msec) or flickering. By contrast, interocular transfer of achromatic spatial frequency adaptation occurs with long steady tests as well as with brief or flickering tests.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010364 Pattern Recognition, Visual Mental process to visually perceive a critical number of facts (the pattern), such as characters, shapes, displays, or designs. Recognition, Visual Pattern,Visual Pattern Recognition
D003118 Color Perception Mental processing of chromatic signals (COLOR VISION) from the eye by the VISUAL CORTEX where they are converted into symbolic representations. Color perception involves numerous neurons, and is influenced not only by the distribution of wavelengths from the viewed object, but also by its background color and brightness contrast at its boundary. Color Perceptions,Perception, Color,Perceptions, Color
D005366 Figural Aftereffect A perceptual phenomenon used by Gestalt psychologists to demonstrate that events in one part of the perceptual field may affect perception in another part. Aftereffect, Figural,Aftereffects, Figural,Figural Aftereffects
D005425 Flicker Fusion The point or frequency at which all flicker of an intermittent light stimulus disappears. Flicker Fusions,Fusion, Flicker,Fusions, Flicker
D006801 Humans Members of the species Homo sapiens. Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D000221 Adaptation, Ocular The adjustment of the eye to variations in the intensity of light. Light adaptation is the adjustment of the eye when the light threshold is increased; DARK ADAPTATION when the light is greatly reduced. (From Cline et al., Dictionary of Visual Science, 4th ed) Light Adaptation,Adaptation, Light,Adaptations, Light,Adaptations, Ocular,Light Adaptations,Ocular Adaptation,Ocular Adaptations
D013997 Time Factors Elements of limited time intervals, contributing to particular results or situations. Time Series,Factor, Time,Time Factor
