Fusion of complex flicker II.

Flicker waveform has been found to have a slight but specific effect upon fusion threshold. A depression of threshold amplitude of about 30 percent occurs if a second harmonic of near-threshold amplitude is added to the fundamental. The magnitude of the depression depends critically on the relative phase of the two components of the waveform.

Fusion of complex flicker.

Brown and Forsyth have recently performed a flicker-fusion experiment showing clearly that there is more to flicker than meets the eye. This report presents an analysis of their results which indicates the likelihood that at fusion threshold all but one of the Fourier components of their presentation are imperceptible.
