Abstract

Simultaneous, oppositely tilted, aftereffects were obtained for pairs of equiluminant gratings (e.g. magenta/cyan vs purple/greenish-yellow) and pairs of equiluminant and luminant gratings (e.g. magenta/cyan vs dark-grey/light-grey, or purple/greenish-yellow vs dark-grey/light-grey). Maximum aftereffects occurred for gratings whose colours were modulated along the principle axes of the colour space of Krauskopf, Williams and Heeley (1982): an axis of short-wavelength cone activation (B-cone axis), the difference between long- and medium-wavelength cone activation (R − G cone axis), and an axis of a contrast ratio of long-, medium- and short-wavelength cone activation (R + G + B cone axis). The results indicate that selectivity for orientation occurs independently in at least two chromatic channels and one achromatic channel.
