“…From the study on the effect of stimulus frequency, sleep and barbiturates, he supposed that the primary response might be characteristic of the specific visual pathway, the secondary response of the non-specific pathway including the midbrain reticular formation and the rhythmic after-discharge of the cortico-thalamic circuit. The VERs obtained from each subject in the present experiment resemble those of Ciganek,18 Vaughan et al 19 and Rodin et al 20 The initial positive wave which Cobb and Dawson21 obtained with bright flash stimulation was not detectable in any subject. The upward component with 62msec peak latency was most common and steady in all subjects.…”

“…Furthermore, in the studies cited the sex distribution of the migraine and control subjects was not indicated. If more male subjects, probably with lower VEPs as in the present study and in the investigations of Rodin et al (1965), were included among the controls, the differences between patients and controls were perhaps further accentuated. This is feasible since a migraine population always tends to be overrepresented by women.…”

“…Such differences between the sexes in response to visual stimuli have already been known as Shagass (1955) reported that women showed higher-amplitude photic driving elicited by ordinary IPS. Concerning visually evoked potentials (VEPs) elicited by stroboscopic light stimulation, Rodin et al (1965), Shagass and Schwartz (1965) and Buchsbaum et al (1974) found higher amplitudes and shorter latencies in females than in males. By the use of dot pattern and grating, Aoki (1976) found that VEPs evoked by patterned stimuli were greater in females than in normal healthy male children and adults ; a similar finding was observed for VEPs elicited by red color stimulation as well.…”

. Tohoku J. exp. Med., 1988, 156 (2), 165-173 -Power spectrum of photic driving elicited by 5/sec flickering dot pattern (FDP) and 5/sec red flicker (RF) stimuli was investigated in 137 psychiatric outpatients. They consisted of 61 adults (33 males and 28 females) from 20 to 44 years of age, 55 preseniles (25 males and 30 females) from 45 to 64 years and 21 seniles (9 males and 12 females) over 65 years of age. Powers of 5 and 10/sec photic driving elicited by FDP and RF stimuli were greater than those of the other higher harmonics and increased significantly with age. When such a finding was compared in relation to gender, significant increase of power with age was found for 5 and 10/sec photic driving elicited by both stimuli in females, whereas it was found only for 5/sec photic driving elicited by RF stimulation in males. Our findings suggest that the visual system of older female patients is very responsive not only to patterned stimuli but also to red flicker stimulation. photic driving ; geometric pattern ; red color ; aging; gender Within a span of four decades since the first report by Walter et al. (1946) appeared, intermittent photic stimulation by the use of stroboscopic white light (to be abbreviated as IPS, hereafter) has been the most common method for eliciting photic driving in a routine EEG examination.Studies dealing with the activation of photoconvulsive response have revealed that visual simuli of flickering geometric pattern (Jeavons et al. 1972;Engel 1974;Panayiotopoulos 1974;Takahashi and Tsukahara 1975) and red flicker (Carterette and Symmes 1952;Takahashi and Tsukahara 1976) were more effective in provoking photoconvulsive response than IPS.
