美洲大蠊对光的回避反射被用来产生这种行为的动作光谱。避免光的动物的比例随着光的强度而增加，有时在反射表面上的最高强度下减少。通过测量作为刺激波长的函数的回避比例来产生动作光谱。结果表明，在低强度下，昆虫避开具有最高敏感性的长波长光（> 430 nm）。在高强度下，短波长刺激（< 430 nm）在唤起反射方面最有效。观察到对旋转偏振滤光片的敏感性。
The avoidance reflex of Periplaneta americana to light was used to generate an action spectrum for this behaviour. The proportion of animals that avoided a light increased with the intensity of the light, sometimes decreasing at the highest intensities on reflective surfaces. The action spectrum was generated by measuring the proportion of avoidance as a function of the wavelength of the stimulus. The results indicate that at low intensities the insects avoided long wavelength light (> 430 nm) with the highest sensitivity. At high intensities, short wavelength stimuli (< 430 nm) were most effective in evoking the reflex. Sensitivity to a rotating polarizing filter was observed.
