[Psychophysical and vergence responses of normal and stereoanomalous observers to pulse-disparity stimulus]. 1982

K Shimono, and M Kondo, and K Shibuta, and S Nakamizo

The relations between psychophysical and oculo-motor responses to retinal disparity were examined in two experiments. Experiment I examined the subject's discriminability of the depth produced by 2 degrees crossed, 2 degrees uncrossed, and zero disparities with the durations of 100 and 1000 ms. As a result, six stereonormal, one crossed stereoanomalous, and one stereoblind observers were identified. In Experiment II, eye movement responses of three subjects with the different types of stereoscopic vision to the disparity pulses were monitored by the photo-electric method. The results of Experiment II indicated that the normal observer showed normal vergence, the crossed stereoanomalous observer showed anomalous convergence, and the stereoblind observer did not show any vergences but saccadic movements. Several theoretical implications of the results are discussed.
