title: On the relation of stereoacuity to interocular transfer of the motion and the tilt aftereffects.
abstract: Interocular transfer of both the motion and the tilt aftereffect were tested in 43 subjects with varying degrees of stereopsis, ranging from normal to stereoblind. Although there was an overall tendency for transfer to diminish with decreasing stereovision, stereoblind subjects always showed some transfer of the tilt aftereffect, and sometimes also of the motion aftereffect, while some subjects with normal stereothresholds had greatly reduced or no interocular transfer. No quantitative correlation between stereothresholds and amount of transfer could be found. The results indicate that there is no simple relationship between interocular transfer, stereopsis and cortical binocularity, as had been suggested previously.
