Visual Discrimination of Temporal Order
@article{Robinson1967VisualDO, title={Visual Discrimination of Temporal Order}, author={David Lee Robinson}, journal={Science}, year={1967}, volume={156}, pages={1263 - 1264} }
Past research addressed to the minimum temporal separation necessary for the judgment of visual stimulus order has failed to control peripheral adaptation and masking effects. The present study employed pairs of brief stimuli with each member presented to a separate eye; that is, dichoptic presentations. Under these conditions, minimum separations for the correct discrimination of order were found to be far less than those obtained in experiments in which both stimuli were presented to the same…

Conflicting results have been obtained in assessments of the discrimination of visual order under dichoptic viewing conditions. Part of the difficulty has centered on experimental controls; a more…
Visual Temporal Order: A New Illusion
- Psychology, BiologyScience

A series of experiments suggests that brief visutal stimuli presented in rapid sequience appear to occur left first, then right, regardless of the actual order of presentation, which may be the product of an internal mechanism that scans visual inputs in a left-to-right order.

We present the result of two experiments that demonstrate an ability on the part of Os to detect asynchronies in visual stimuli with in the range of 0-100 msec. Such results are additional examples…

The discrepancies in results between two experiments on the visual detection of temporal order are discussed, and it is suggested that the differences arise in great part from the definition of…
Judging the Order of Visual Stimuli
- Psychology, BiologyThe Quarterly journal of experimental psychology

Psychometric functions obtained for judgements of the order of two long duration light flashes were about half as steep as those previously obtained for short flashes, and the shape of the curves did not conform to a normal ogive of the kind normally expected in threshold determinations.

The results indicate that frequency does not affect the form, the slope or the location along the abscissa of the discrimination functions.
Observer strategies in dichoptic viewing of successive stimuli

Enhanced ability to correctly perceive order of brief visual stimuli presented dichoptically may be interpreted as learning by the observer to adopt an appropriate strategy.
