Abstract:
Chichilnisky & Wandell [(1995). Vision Research, 35, 239-254], studying dichoptic asymmetric colour matching with haploscopically superimposed backgrounds explained their data in terms of a model that assumes incremental multiplicative sensitivity control. The model given in Mausfeld & Niederée [(1993). Perception, 22, 427-462] postulates a different incremental multiplicative sensitivity control for incremental and decremental stimuli. It accounts for systematic deviations between Chichilnisky and Wandell's predictions and data as well as for a certain type of increment-decrement asymmetry not compatible with their model.

Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...
