  • Title: Spatial frequency tuning in the visual evoked potential elicited by sine-wave gratings.
    Author: Reed JL, Marx MS, May JG.
    Journal: Vision Res; 1984; 24(9):1057-62. PubMed ID: 6506470.
    Abstract:
    This investigation examined the onset response of the transient visually evoked potential elicited by the appearance-disappearance of sine-wave gratings at various levels of spatial frequency, suprathreshold contrast, and stimulus duration. The response was most easily characterized by two negative-positive complexes that were differentially tuned to spatial frequency. The earlier complex peaked at high spatial frequencies while the later complex peaked at low spatial frequencies. For both complexes, amplitude showed only slight variations across three-octave ranges of contrast and duration. Latency was curvilinearly related to spatial frequency, decreased with increasing contrast, and showed no apparent change as a function of duration.
