“…To eliminate this possibility, we tested the storage effect of dMAE. Both static and dynamic MAEs survive post-adaptation blank intervals for time periods equivalent to the duration of the MAE, a phenomenon termed the storage effect (Griffith & Spitz, 1959;Spigel, 1960Spigel, , 1962aSpigel, , 1962bSpigel, , 1964Wohlgemuth, 1911).…”

After prolonged exposure to moving stimuli, illusory motion is perceived in stimuli that do not contain consistent motion, a phenomenon termed the motion aftereffect (MAE). In this study, we tested MAEs under binocular suppression that renders the motion adaptor invisible for the entire adaptation period. We developed a variant of the continuous flash suppression method to reliably suppress target motion stimuli for durations longer than several tens of seconds. Here, we ask whether motion systems are functional in the absence of perception by measuring the MAE, a question difficult to address using binocular rivalry that accompanies a switch of percept between visible and invisible. Results show that both the MAEs with static and dynamic tests are attenuated with an invisible adaptor when the adaptor and the test stimulus are presented to the same eye. In contrast, when the test pattern was presented to the other eye, the dynamic MAE was observed in invisible adaptor conditions. These results indicate that low-level adaptation survives under total binocular suppression, a finding predicted by previous studies. In contrast, disappearance of interocular transfer in the dynamic MAE suggests that a high-level motion detector does not operate when the motion adaptor is rendered invisible.

“…The MAE is well known to exhibit an effect called storage-if there is an interval of time between the adaptation and the test periods in which no visual stimulation is present, the MAE can still be observed in the test pattern (Spigel, 1960(Spigel, , 1962(Spigel, , 1964Thompson & Wright, 1994;Verstraten, Fredericksen, Grüsser, & van de Grind, 1994;Wohlgemuth, 1911). Even if a textured pattern is presented during the storage period, there can still be a strong residual MAE (Thompson & Wright, 1994;Verstraten et al, 1994).…”

“…Presumably, the results of the latter were not much affected by delay between adaptation and testing. Perhaps that could be explained by "storage" of the aftereffect, as has been reported for conventional motion aftereffects (Spigel, 1960(Spigel, , 1964. Interocular Interocular transfer of conventional-motion aftereffects has produced a range of results with a median of 60% (Wade et al, 1993).…”

Induced Rotational Motion With Nonabutting Inducing and Induced Stimuli: Implications Regarding Two Forms of Induced Motion

Induced motion is the illusory motion of a static stimulus in the opposite direction to a moving stimulus. Two types of induced motion have been distinguished: (a) when the moving stimulus is distant from the static stimulus and undergoes overall displacement, and (b) when the moving stimulus is pattern viewed within fixed boundaries that abut the static stimulus. Explanations of the 1st type of induced motion refer to mediating phenomena, such as vection, whereas the 2nd type is attributed to local processing by motion-sensitive neurons. The present research was directed to a display that elicited induced rotational motion with the characteristics of both types of induced motion: the moving stimulus lay within fixed boundaries, but the inducing and induced stimuli were distant from each other. The author investigated the properties that distinguished the two types of induced motion. In 3 experiments, induced motion persisted indefinitely, interocular transfer of the aftereffect of induced motion was limited to about 20%, and the time-course of the aftereffect of induced motion could not be attributed to vection. Those results were consistent with fixed-boundary induced motion. However, they could not be explained by local processing. Instead, the results might reflect the detection of object motion within a complex flow-field that resulted from the observer's motion.
