Similarities in normal and binocularly rivalrous viewing.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report here a series of observations-most of which the reader can experience directly-showing that distinct components of patterned visual stimuli (orthogonal lines of a different hue) vary in perception as sets. Although less frequent and often less complete, these perceptual fluctuations in normal viewing are otherwise similar to the binocular rivalry experienced when incompatible scenes are presented dichoptically.

Similarities in normal and binocularly rivalrous viewing (visual perceptionyrivalryystimulus setsycompetitionystimulus f luctuations)
We report here a series of observations— most of which the reader can experience directly—showing that distinct components of patterned visual stimuli (orthogonal lines of a different hue) vary in perception as sets. Although less frequent and often less complete, these perceptual f luctuations in normal viewing are otherwise similar to the binocular rivalry experienced when incompatible scenes...
متن کاملMechanisms selectively engaged in rivalry: normal vision habituates, rivalrous vision primes
When rivalrous stimuli are presented intermittently, perception stabilises. This indicates the operation of perceptual memory across interruptions in stimulation. Here we show that a percept under non-rivalrous and rivalrous conditions has qualitatively different effects on subsequent rivalrous vision. When an image is perceived under rivalrous viewing, that image is more likely to be perceived...
متن کاملCommon contextual influences in ambiguous and rivalrous figures
Images that resist binocular fusion undergo alternating periods of dominance and suppression, similarly to ambiguous figures whose percepts alternate between two interpretations. It has been well documented that the perceptual interpretations of both rivalrous and ambiguous figures are influenced by their spatio-temporal context. Here we consider whether an identical spatial context similarly i...
متن کاملPeripheral fading with monocular and binocular viewing
This study measured the fading times of peripheral targets as a function of whether viewing was monocular or binocular, and of brightness contrast. Data from a binocularly normal group showed Troxler fading to be significantly faster with monocular (i.e., patched) than with binocular viewing. In contrast, one-eyed observers showed significantly longer fading times than the two-eyed observers vi...
متن کاملEarly unilateral enucleation disrupts motion processing
Previous research has shown that unilaterally enucleated observers demonstrate better luminance-defined form perception compared to monocularly viewing controls, and similar performance to control observers viewing binocularly (Vision Res. 37(17) (1997) 2465). In Experiment 1 we asked whether the perception of form, where form is defined by other attributes than luminance, is also improved comp...
