“…Similarly, many visual aftereffects increase in magnitude with eccentricity. These include tilt aftereffects (Harris & Calvert, 1985; Muir & Over, 1970), motion aftereffects (Castet, Keeble, & Verstraten, 2002; Wright, 1986), shape aftereffects (Gheorghiu, Kingdom, Bell, & Gurnsey, 2011; Suzuki & Cavanagh, 1998), and face aftereffects (Tangen, Murphy, & Thompson, 2011; Webster, Kaping, Mizokami, & Duhamel, 2004). Although the scaling of cortical magnification might explain the larger tilt aftereffect found in the periphery (Harris & Calvert, 1985), it cannot account for the eccentricity-dependent increase in the shape aftereffect, and Gheorghiu et al (2011) suggested that the differences might instead reflect greater adaptation gain (i.e., larger post-adaptation sensitivity suppression) or an eccentricity-dependent decrease in the stimulus-selectivity of the adapted mechanisms.…”
