We compared the visual detection thresholds for cone-isolating stimuli of trichromats (those with normal color vision) with those of X-linked dichromats, who lack either the long-wavelength-sensitive (L) cones (protanopes) or middle-wavelength-sensitive (M) cones (deuteranopes). At low (1 Hz) temporal frequencies, dichromats have significantly higher (twofold) thresholds for all colored stimuli...

INTRODUCTION Adding mass to the feet or shoes increases energetic demand: ~1% for each 100grams added per foot [1,2]. However, several studies indicate that running with lightweight shoes has an equivalent energetic cost as running barefoot (Figure 1). Frederick et al. [3] hypothesized that this could be explained if running barefoot involves a greater “cost of cushioning” which counteracts the...
