Abstract

We studied amplitude of the wave N200 of the motion-onset VEP by varying the side length of a square stimulation field between 0.5 and 7 degrees. A significant increase in amplitude was obtained between 0.5 and 1 degree of side length in central stimulation and between 0.5 and 5 degrees in 10-degree peripheral stimulation. Variations of spatial frequency between 0.34 and 6.8c/deg did not modify the amplitude size, ie, no tuning effect could be found. The results of simultaneous and separate stimulation of foveal and parafoveal regions support the observation that the stimulation field size is a minor influence. Features of motion-sensitive cortical neurons, such as those found in monkeys, could account for this behavior.
