“…We used a two-alternative, forced-choice psychophysical procedure (Umino et al, 2006a,b) to measure response thresholds for computer-generated, moving sine-wave gratings . Our overall approach is similar to those developed by others for testing vision in humans (Kelly, 1972;Teller et al, 1974), monkeys (De Valois et al, 1974), and cats (Pasternak and Merigan, 1981). This study establishes the spatiotemporal properties of contrast sensitivity of rod and cone vision in mice, revealing the temporal tuning of rod vision and speed tuning of cone vision.…”

“…A third influence on our thinking about young infants was the work of Teller and her colleagues (Teller, Morse, Borton, & Regal, 1974), who developed psychophysical measures of infant visual sensitivity. Teller (1979) has described in detail the Forced-choice Preferential Looking (FPL) technique for estimating infant acuity, color vision, and other visual functions.…”

“…By using grating stimuli of different spatial frequencies and the forced-choice response of an observer naive as to the side of presen tation of the stimulus, it is possible to estimate the visual resolution of young infants (,forced choice preferential looking' , FPL). 2 In this paper, we present the results of two experiments based on the preferential looking procedure. In a first experiment, the develop ment of visual acuity in the peripheral visual field was described for infants under one year of age.…”

“…Our interests were twofold: (1) to learn whether the results obtained previously could be reproduced at another position in the visual field (20 degrees); (2) to test the development of visual acuity in monocular conditions. We were especially interested in the possible occur rence of nasa-temporal asymmetries.…”
