pubmed-article:6746236 | pubmed:abstractText | The effect of contrast on visual evoked potential (VEP) amplitude was examined in nine observers. A 6.0 cycles/deg (cpd) grating was modulated in an "on-off" mode at 7.5 Hz. The VEP response contains significant first and second harmonic components: their growth with contrast is parallel, each function consisting of two limbs. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that the pattern VEP obtained with "on-off" presentation may reflect the contributions of "low" and "high" contrast neuronal populations demonstrated in physiological studies of the primate. | lld:pubmed |
