TLDR
Results support those explanations of orientation-selective colour aftereffects (the McCullough effect) that have been offered in terms of adaptation of neural analysers tuned to both orientation and wavelength.

Spatial and Ordinal Components of Form Perception and Literacy.

TL;DR: In this article, the visual nervous system possesses compensatory rectifying mechanisms by means of which it achieves "constancy" of visual recognition despite variation in physical appearance of the stimulus object.

The influence of colour and contour rivalry on the magnitude of the tilt after-effect

TL;DR: The results indicated that the magnitude of the tilt after-effect was not influenced by the colour of the inspection and test gratings, was not affected by binocular rivalry suppression, and was the same under various conditions of monocular and binocular inspection and testing.

McCollough effects: experimental findings and theoretical accounts.

TL;DR: Findings which suggest that McCollough effects have characteristics like those of learned responses may help to resolve the paradox of the effects.

Form-Color Aftereffects in Human Vision

TL;DR: Although some mechanisms respond selectively to form regardless of color and other mechanisms might respond to color regardless of form, these mechanisms do not convey specific information about color.

The tilt illusion: phenomenology and functional implications.

TL;DR: A selective review of the literature on the tilt illusions, focusing on functional aspects, explores the merits of mechanistic accounts of the tilt illusion based upon sensory gain control in which neuronal responses are normalized by the pooled activity of other units.

Receptive fields and functional architecture of monkey striate cortex

TL;DR: The striate cortex was studied in lightly anaesthetized macaque and spider monkeys by recording extracellularly from single units and stimulating the retinas with spots or patterns of light, with response properties very similar to those previously described in the cat.

Optical and retinal factors affecting visual resolution.

TL;DR: An improved version of the well-known interference fringe technique which theoretically allows a sinusoidal pattern of very high contrast to be formed directly on the retina to be obtained without prior modification by the optics of the eye is reported.

Color Adaptation of Edge-Detectors in the Human Visual System.

TL;DR: An aftereffect of color which depends on the orientation of lines in the test field may be obtained by presenting a horizontal grating of one color alternately with a vertical grates of a different color.

Orientational selectivity of the human visual system

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of changing the orientation between the object and background is investigated, and it is shown that the masking effect increases with the angle between the test and masking gratings.
