X Abstract

The minimum stimulus-onset asynchrony required for perception of beta apparent movement was measured with point stimuli separated by visual angles ranging from about 0.1· to 5· and viewing distance as a parameter. For each viewing distance, the threshold for beta movement was a monotonic function of the visual angle with a strong linear increase over angles less than 0.25· (short-range function) and a much weaker linear increase over angles greater than 1.5· (long-range). The short- and long-range functions were differentially affected by increase in viewing distance: the long-range function increased in slope, but the extrapolated zero-intercept was constant; the short-range function changed in intercept, but not in slope. The results provide strong evidence for separate short- and long-range processes in visual motion perception.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
