Covert attention increases contrast sensitivity: Psychophysical, neurophysiological and neuroimaging studies.
This chapter focuses on the effect of covert spatial attention on contrast sensitivity, a basic visual dimension where the best mechanistic understanding of attention has been achieved. I discuss how models of contrast sensitivity, as well as the confluence of psychophysical, single-unit recording, and neuroimaging studies, suggest that attention increases contrast sensitivity via contrast gain...
متن کاملTransient VEP and psychophysical chromatic contrast thresholds in children and adults
It has been found that humans are able to distinguish colours without luminance cues by about 2-4 months of age and that sensitivity to colour difference develops during childhood, reaching a peak around adolescence. This prolonged period of maturation is reflected by improvements in psychophysical threshold measures and by the VEP characteristics of morphology, latency and amplitude. An intra-...
متن کاملResponses to chromatic and luminance contrast in glaucoma: a psychophysical and electrophysiological study
Increasing anatomical evidence indicates that large retinal ganglion cells (M-cells) are preferentially damaged in primary open angle glaucoma (OAG), while the smaller ganglion cells (P-cells) are relatively spared. In 13 patients with defined OAG and modest visual field defects, we evaluated the responses to stimuli that are expected to involve primarily the function of the P-pathway and compa...
متن کاملPsychophysical contrast calibration
Electronic displays and computer systems offer numerous advantages for clinical vision testing. Laboratory and clinical measurements of various functions and in particular of (letter) contrast sensitivity require accurately calibrated display contrast. In the laboratory this is achieved using expensive light meters. We developed and evaluated a novel method that uses only psychophysical respons...
متن کاملI STUDIES IN DISPLAY SYMBOL LEGIBILITY PART VIE : Legibility
This report describes the findings of a study in symbol legibility which investigated the reading time and errors for common five-letter words when they are projected by a solid stroke and when they are shown by a broken stroke. The latter was produced on a 945-line TV monitor at 10, 7, and 5 active lines per symbol height. This study is similar to an earlier report on the readability of common...
