Adaptation to a high-contrast sinusoidal luminance grating produces a temporary, band limited loss in sensitivity centered around the adaptation frequency. The decrease appears to be both narrower and more symmetrical than earlier reports suggest. The effect falls to zero byf± 1 octave and is not reliably present fromf± 1 octave tof± 2 octaves. Enhancement of contrast sensitivity occurs for frequencies further removed, peaking at aboutf± 2 built 34 to 3 octaves. This suggests mutual inhibitory interactions among spatial-frequency-selective units of varying filter characteristics. Longterm practice produces significantly higher contrast sensitivity functions and narrower bandwidths of the adaptational sensitivity loss.
