This study aimed to examine the effects of binocular disparity on binocular combination of brightness information coming from luminance increments and decrements. The point of subjective equality was determined by asking the observers to judge which stimulus appeared brighter-a bar stimulus with variable disparity or another stimulus with zero disparity. For the bar stimulus, the interocular luminance ratio was varied to trace an equal brightness curve. Binocular disparity had no effect on luminance increments presented on a gray or black background. In contrast, when luminance decrements were presented on a gray background, non-zero disparities elevated points of subjective equality for stimuli with interocular luminance differences. This means that the binocular brightness combination of the two monocular signals shifted from winner-take-all summation toward linear averaging. It has been argued that this effect may be caused by non-zero binocular disparities attenuating interocular suppression, which is deemed to operate normally with zero disparity. |
