Temporal integration at equiluminance and chromatic adaptation.
The present study showed that at equiluminance the critical duration of temporal integration became shorter as the chromatic saturation of an adaptation field was increased. These results suggest that the chromatic coding system (which is assumed to posses poorer temporal resolution or larger temporal integration time than the luminance coding system) can change its temporal integrating organization with its own adaptation level, independently of the luminance system.
