Perceived size and perceived direction: the interplay of the two descriptors of visual space.

abstract：:Thresholds were measured for discriminating changes in the slopes of the amplitude spectra of stimuli derived from photographs of natural scenes and from random-luminance patterns. The variety and magnitudes of the thresholds could be explained by a model based on the discrimination of the changes in band-limited loca...

Small or large targets (0.2 or 0.8 deg) moved at either 2.5, 5, or 10 deg s(-1) across a horizontal path (2.5 or 10 deg) and then vanished behind an occluder. Observers responded when they judged that t...
