We are sad to report that Professor Jacob (Jack) Nachmias passed away on March 2, 2019. Nachmias was born in Athens, Greece, on June 9, 1928. To escape the Nazis, he and his family came to the United States in 1939. He received his undergraduate degr

Discrimination was measured for height, area, and aspect ratio of ovals and rectangles. Random jittering of the orthogonal property (width, aspect ratio, and area) was used to control the observers’ criterion. Weber fractions for aspect ratio were

Psychometric functions were measured in various visual discrimination tasks involving test stimuli whose values spanned a standard stimulus. In two-interval trial blocks, the standard was either always in the first or always in the second interval, o

The main purpose of these experiments was to examine in detail how successfully the uncertainty reduction explanation accounts for the effects of spatial cues in a temporal forced-choice contrast discrimination task in which any one of four well-sepa

Thresholds were measured for detecting 4 cpd gratings added to maskers consisting of nine sinusoidal components spanning 1 octave around the signal frequency. Phases of all mask components were randomized on every presentation. To assess their import

According to the standard model of masked detection of gratings, the observers's task is to decide whether the response of some critical mechanism is reliably increased by the addition of the test stimulus to the masker. To test this conception, expe

Contrast- or quasi-frequency-modulated masker gratings consisting of three high frequency components (8.8, 11 and 13.2 c/deg) affect the detectability of a 2.2 c/deg signal grating, to an extent that is strongly dependent upon the relative phase betw

The frequent current use in probability summation calculations of equations of the form. P = 1 − (1−γ)exp[−(I/α)β] to represent the psychometric function for contrast detection is based on two assumptions: (1) γ can be changed without affec

Models explaining the Stiles-Crawford Effect typically characterize individual receptors as either narrowly or broadly “tuned” (i.e. reactive to light incident through a narrow or broad angle, respectively). Makous (1968) has shown that he retina
