Integration of Visual Motion Signals in Reduced Visual Conditions.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Neural sensory systems continuously tailor themselves to adapt to changes in the surrounding environment. In motion adaptation, a certain period of exposure to consistent motion in one direction (inducer) will alter the perceived direction of motion of the following stimulus. Depending on the timescale of the inducer, two opposite adaptation phenomena can be observed: motion priming for brief inducers, and motion aftereffect for longer inducers. The aim of this study was to investigate how the integration of motion signals during adaptation is affected by externally reduced visual conditions, such as luminance, contrast, and spatial frequency. We then considered how this would apply to the naturally impaired visual system in amblyopia.
