Scanning and form-contingent color aftereffects

J Exp Psychol Gen. 1994 Mar;123(1):91-4. doi: 10.1037//0096-3445.123.1.91.

Abstract

G. K. Humphrey, A. M. Herbert, L. A. Symons, and S. Kara (1994) and J. Broerse and P. Grimbeek (1994) suggested that the form-contingent color aftereffect reported by S. Siegel, L. G. Allan, and T. Eissenberg (1992) would not be obtained if Ss were instructed to scan the induction and assessment forms. The authors present data from Ss who were instructed to scan the forms. These scanning Ss displayed aftereffects that were no different from those described earlier by Siegel et al. Scanning Ss do display spatiotopic contingent color aftereffects.
