  • Title: Texture discrimination does not occur at the cyclopean retina.
    Author: Nothdurft HC.
    Journal: Perception; 1985; 14(5):527-37. PubMed ID: 3836384.
    Abstract:
    The ability to segregate texture patterns at the cyclopean retina was tested with random-dot stereograms. When fused, patterns displayed arrays of texture elements which varied either in their form or in apparent depth. If elements of different form appeared at similar disparity in the random-dot stereograms, they did not provide the visual impression of distinct texture areas, although individually they could be easily discriminated. When texture elements differed in apparent depth rather than in form, segregation of different areas was readily achieved. These results restrict the possible site in the visual system for texture discrimination.
