Teach to reach: the effects of active vs. passive reaching experiences on action and perception.

abstract：:Visual performance is greatly impaired when tested with heterochromatic isoluminant stimuli. It is thus concluded that the chromatic system contribution to many visual tasks is limited. We suggest that unless color and luminance are shown to be processed independently, such experiments do not demonstrate shortcomings ...
