Perceived Speed of Compound Stimuli Is Moderated by Component Contrast, Not Overall Pattern Contrast
The perception of speed is susceptible to manipulations of image contrast, both for simple sine wave and more complex stimuli, such that low-contrast patterns generally appear slower than their high-contrast equivalents. It is not known whether the crucial factor is the contrast of the underlying Fourier components or the contrast of the overall complex pattern. Here, two experiments investigat...
متن کاملAn explanation of why component contrast affects perceived pattern motion
Component contrast is an essential element in computing spatio-temporal motion energy, and has been shown to bias perceived motion (Thompson, 1982). More recently, Champion, Hammett, and Thompson (2007) concluded that two-dimensional features in the stimulus was the explanation for this motion bias. Here a method was used that eliminated two-dimensional features as the source of the bias. Bowns...
متن کاملThe effect of contrast upon perceived speed: a general phenomenon?
The perceived speed of a grating pattern has often been reported to slow as the contrast of the pattern is reduced (though there are some contradictory reports). The mechanism of this perceived slowing has not yet been established nor have the conditions under which the effect occurs (or does not occur). We have therefore examined a range of stimuli that differ upon such aspects as one versus t...
متن کاملPerceived Speed of Colored Stimuli
The influence of contrast and color on perceived motion was measured using a speed-matching task. Observers adjusted the speed of an L cone contrast pattern to match that of a variety of colored test patterns. The dependence of speed on test contrast was the same for all test colors measured, differing only by a sensitivity factor. This result suggests that the reduced apparent speed of low con...
متن کاملThe effects of surround contrast on contrast thresholds, perceived contrast and contrast discrimination
Perceived contrast, contrast detection thresholds and contrast discrimination thresholds were measured in the presence and absence of surrounding patterns of a similar spatio-temporal makeup. In the foveal retina we found that the perceived contrast of the central pattern was reduced by the presence of the contrast surrounds with the effect being greatest at low test contrast. Detection thresho...
