I Agree: Binocular Rivalry Stimuli are Common but Rivalry is Not
I have recently argued that binocular rivalry (BR) is uncommon, despite discrepant monocular images being frequently encountered in daily life, because the images of proximate obstructions tend to be persistently suppressed from awareness by the better-focused images of objects near fixation (Arnold, 2011). This has the functionally adaptive consequence of enhancing the visibility of fixated ob...
متن کاملBinocular Rivalry Stimuli are Common but Rivalry is not
Recently Arnold (2011) asked “Why is binocular rivalry uncommon?”. He answered in an entertainingly written, provocative article, for which I thank and congratulate him. However, I will argue that Arnold’s answer falls short in two respects and his assumption that rivalry is uncommon is correct for two reasons other than the one he discusses. Binocular rivalry is a phenomenon of human visual pe...
متن کاملBinocular Rivalry
When two different images are shown, one to each eye, we don't always see a mix of the two. In cases when the images differ in atleast one attribute we may see only one image at a time and this alternates between the two images. (eg: Horizontal and vertical gratings differ in the direction of grating. When horizontal grating is shown to say right eye and vertical grating to left eye we see only...
متن کاملBinocular rivalry
What is binocular rivalry? In humans and animals with forward facing eyes, the two eyes provide views of the world that are only subtly different from one another. In each eye, the lens focuses light into a two-dimensional image on the retina. In normal vision, the disparity between the retinal images provides a stereoscopic cue to the third spatial dimension, depth. But when the eyes are prese...
متن کاملVisible binocular beats from invisible monocular stimuli during binocular rivalry
When two qualitatively different stimuli are presented at the same time, one to each eye, the stimuli can either integrate or compete with each other. When they compete, one of the two stimuli is alternately suppressed, a phenomenon called binocular rivalry [1,2]. When they integrate, observers see some form of the combined stimuli. Many different properties (for example, shape or color) of the...
