✦ Synopsis

Using behavioral techniques, contrast sensitivity for flickering and stationary gratings was measured in ordinary cats. Gratings of low spatial frequency were more easily detected by the cat when temporal modulation was present, but at high spatial frequencies temporal modulation reduced grating visibility. These psychophysical results are consistent with neurophysiological evidence for the existence of two classes of visual cells in the cat, which are distinguishable in terms of their spatio-temporal response properties.

Visual acuity and contrast sensitivity were measured behaviourally in normal adult cats and cats reared with monocular convergent squint from 3, 6, 8, 12, and 24 weeks of age. The visual acuity of the squinting eye was significantly lower than that of the non-squinting eye in cats with squint from 3
