“…Moreover, speed discrimination (Genova & Bocheva, 2013;Norman, Ross, Hawkes, & Long, 2003) as well as motion direction discrimination (Ball & Sekuler, 1986;Bennett et al, 2007;Bocheva, Angelova, & Stefanova, 2013;Bogfjellmo et al, 2013) have been found to decline with increasing age. However, results seem to vary largely depending on stimulus parameters such motion direction (Ball & Sekuler, 1986;Pilz, Miller, & Agnew, 2017), stimulus size (Hutchinson, Ledgeway, & Allen, 2014), contrast (Allen et al, 2010), stimulus duration (Bennett et al, 2007;Conlon, Power, Hine, & Rahaley, 2017), or location (Wojciechowski et al, 1995). Indeed, the mechanisms that modulate age effects are often not well understood, but call for caution when trying to derive overall conclusions on functional changes.…”
