The negative aftereffect of motion as a function of test stimulus texture
Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston University === The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the texture of the test stimulus and the rate of the negative after-effect of motion. An interaction theory based on contour phenomena was proposed to account for the effects of texture. The...
