Abstract:
Discrete and continuous modes of visual pattern discrimination performance are analyzed using a model for the investigation of discrete internal pattern representations described in previous papers (Foster, 1980a, b). A simple quantitative criterion is derived to characterize the two kinds of visual discrimination performance. Values predicted by this criterion are then compared with values obtained from experimental data.
