Measuring subjective phenomena can be difficult, as there is no ground truth against which to calibrate judgements. There is also a trade-off between the quality of the data and the time and effort of the participant — greater time investment should result in better data. However, whilst long, complex experiments might be possible in controlled lab settings with few observers, it becomes a barrier when attempting to estimate visual discomfort in less controlled but more ecologically valid spaces, and when investigating individual differences, for example young people and clinical populations. It is also difficult to calibrate judgements between participants due to individual variation in criterion — the idiosyncratic mapping of discomfort onto responses. We propose an intuitive method for participants to reduce criterion effects. This method maximises the amount of information gathered in a short space of time, and limits the risk of apparently estimating “discomfort” when the individual does not experience it. We apply this method to test two theoretical contributions to visual discomfort — cortical hyperexcitability (from spatial frequency (<span><math><mi>f</mi></math></span>), corresponding to stripe thickness) and ambiguous motion signals (from phase modulation wavelength (<span><math><mi>μ</mi></math></span>) corresponding to stripe waviness).

Here we highlight key challenges that remain to be addressed to understand retinal processing of natural stimuli and describe emerging research avenues to overcome them. A key issue is model complexity. When complexifying the probing stimuli towards natural stimuli, the number of parameters required in models of retinal computations increases, raising issues of overfitting, generalization, and interpretability. This increase in complexity also poses a challenge for normative approaches, as it makes it difficult to derive non-linear retinal computations from simple principles. We describe two approaches that may help circumvent this issue. First, we propose that a new form of reductionism is emerging: instead of breaking down natural stimuli into sums of simpler stimuli, it becomes possible to “divide and conquer” natural scenes into different visual inputs corresponding to different visual tasks, allowing to study retinal computations separately for each of these tasks. Moreover, the abstract computations performed by some cell types may be understood as the result of being constrained by multiple tasks. Second, several studies suggest that it will soon be possible to mitigate the issue of complexity, by “embodying” models with more biological constraints, in particular those derived from connectomic studies. Together, these approaches offer a powerful strategy to tackle current limitations and advance our understanding of how the retina processes natural visual environments, and suggest methods that could be used in other sensory areas.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":23670,"journal":{"name":"Vision Research","volume":"241 ","pages":"Article 108763"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145979025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a standard binocular rivalry paradigm, we manipulated the contrast presented to the amblyopic eye and the size of rival stimuli. Results showed that the amblyopic eye exhibited little or no perceptual dominance at smaller stimulus sizes under an equal contrast condition, but dominance increased with larger stimulus sizes and increased contrast, while reducing fellow-eye dominance. However, overall perceptual dominance of the amblyopic eye remained substantially lower than that of the fellow eye and of normal-vision observers, even with enlarged stimuli or high contrast. We found no significant correlation between the fellow-eye dominance bias and the depth of amblyopia, stereoacuity, or interocular suppression in this cohort. Interestingly, individuals with amblyopia showed a much higher proportion of mixed perception compared to normal-vision observers, suggesting qualitatively altered interocular interactions in adults with anisometropic amblyopia.

It was calculated by fitting a hinged-line to the perceptual errors as a function of target-flanker-distance. Crowding magnitude and critical spacing were both measured for flankers with either no gap, a gap with a size matching each individual’s luminance-specific acuity threshold, or a suprathreshold (200 % of worst-acuity) gap.

In mice, as in other mammals, color vision originates in the retina, where photoreceptor signals are processed by neural circuits. However, retinal responses to stimuli involving multiple colors are still not well understood. One possible explanation of this knowledge gap is that previous studies have not thoroughly examined how neuronal activity adapts to a 30 s to a few minutes timescale when exposed to multiple color sources. To address this, we systematically varied the UV-to-green light balance with a custom-built stimulator targeting mice opsins spectra while recording retinal ganglion cell responses across the dorso-ventral axis of the retina using multielectrode arrays. Responses to full-field chirp and checkerboard stimulations with alternating UV and green light revealed that more than one order of magnitude of intensity difference favoring green M-opsin over UV S-opsin is needed for a balanced reliability in retinal ganglion cell responses in the ventral retina. An incorrect balance, with slightly increased UV light, silenced responses to green illumination. To determine if these values are consistent with natural conditions, we analyzed isomerisation rates in the mouse retina across different times of the day. We found that the M- to S-opsin activation ratio remains constant through the mesopic-photopic range, and that our empirically determined values in the ventral retina align well with these natural conditions. These lie far from a simple equalization of M- and S-opsin isomerisation rates, which we found only balances ganglion cell responses in the dorsal retina. In conclusion, a finely tuned color intensity balance matching natural light spectrum is essential for accurately measuring both fast temporal responses and detailed spatial receptive fields in the ventral retina.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":23670,"journal":{"name":"Vision Research","volume":"240 ","pages":"Article 108743"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145744869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
