Abstract

Phenomenal reports of perceptual changes during metacontrast are abundant in the literature. In the present study four such variables (brightness of the center, edge, and whole test stimulus, and apparent duration of the test stimulus) were quantified using a magnitude estimation procedure. While all four are described by U-shaped functions, apparent duration was at a minimum at a significantly longer SOA than brightness. Implications for processing mechanisms are discussed.
