“…Previous studies have reported no significant differences between upper versus lower locations along the intercardinal meridians, with intermediate performance relative to the VM and HM for stimuli presented at 45º within the four quadrants (e.g., Abrams et al, 2012;Cameron et al, 2002;Carrasco et al, 2004;Fuller & Carrasco, 2009). The fact that no significant difference emerges at 45º in most visual tasks has been used to justify collapsing performance across the four intercardinal isoeccentric locations (e.g., Barbot & Carrasco, 2017;Guzman-Martinez et al, 2011;Ling & Carrasco, 2006a, 2006bLiu & Mance, 2011;Montagna, Pestilli & Carrasco, 2009;Sawaki & Luck, 2013;Yashar et al, 2017). It is worth noting, however, that in the present study, a slight VMA asymmetry in SF sensitivity was still observed at 45º, which is consistent with the presence of a marginal asymmetry in contrast sensitivity at 45º (Abrams et al, 2012).…”
