Abstract
Theoretical and empirical characterization of changes in performance with eccentricity is used to assess the availability of location information in the human visual system. We first examine conditions in which a single scaling function can be used to describe performance at various eccentricities. We then consider performance on two types of task: (1) detection of presence/absence of stimuli, and (2) Vernier acuity and discrimination of length.
