“…And second: Can coherence detection be thought of as a purely integrative process? To answer the first question, we investigated a number of key properties for global form for which we have comparable global motion data, for example, the spatial (spatial frequency and orientation) (Dakin, Mareschal, & Bex, 2005;, contrast Simmers, Ledgeway, Hess, & McGraw, 2003); eccentricity (Hess & AaenStockdale, 2008;Hess & Zaharia, 2010), and areal summation (Dakin, 2001;Downing & Movshon, 1989;Watamaniuk & Sekuler, 1992;Williams & Sekuler, 1984) dependencies. To answer the second question, we modify our task so that there is a clear prediction if performance is solely determined by integrative mechanisms.…”
