abstract：:The contrast threshold elevation effect has been measured for one dimensional (grating) and for two dimensional (spot) stimulus patterns. It has been shown previously (Burton and Ruddock, 1978) that such stimuli elicit, respectively, non-length-selective and length-selective adaptation effects. It is established that,...
