人类婴儿检测10 ° C的阈值在暗适应条件下和存在稳定红色背景的情况下,使用优先观察方法确定直径50和1000毫秒的刺激。暗适应敏感性和增量阈值函数的线性部分的斜率随年龄增加。斜率在4周时为0.5,但到10周时,其与成人值没有差异(约1.0)。在所有年龄段,本征值与成人的本征值大致相同(-2.3 log scot。td)。这些结果表明,视觉机制参与检测闪光和适应稳定的背景光成熟出生后。
Human infants'' thresholds for detecting 10.degree. diameter 50 and 1000 msec stimuli in the dark adapted condition and in the presence of steady red backgrounds were determined using a preferential looking method. Dark adapted sensitivity and the slope of the linear portion of the increment threshold function increased with age. The slope was 0.5 at 4 weeks, but by 10 weeks it was not different from the adult value (.apprx. 1.0). At all ages the eigengrau was approximately the same as that of adults (-2.3 log scot. td). These results suggest that visual mechanisms involved in detection of flashes and adaptation to steady background lights mature postnatally.
