It has been hypothesized that group and element movements, respectively, reflect magnocellular and parvocellular activity. On this basis, Ternus tests have been used to assess magnocellular function in dyslexic individuals. This use of Ternus stimuli is examined in the present report. On the basis of amplitude spectra of the stimuli and of a review of previous studies it is concluded that to use Ternus tests to assess magnocellular function is problematic.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1068\/p3204","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2002,8,24]],"date-time":"2002-08-24T17:28:38Z","timestamp":1030210118000},"page":"1449-1457","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["On the use of the Ternus Test to Assess Magnocellular Function"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"30","author":[{"given":"Bernt C","family":"Skottun","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Skottun Research, 273 Mather Street, Piedmont, CA 94611-5154, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2001,12,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0042-6989(74)90041-8"},{"key":"bibr2-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1098\/rstb.1980.0087"},{"key":"bibr3-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3758\/BF03204935"},{"key":"bibr4-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0042-6989(86)90131-8"},{"key":"bibr5-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0010-0277(99)00023-2"},{"key":"bibr6-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0010-0277(01)00129-9"},{"key":"bibr7-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0952523800007380"},{"key":"bibr8-p3204","first-page":"59","volume-title":"Dyslexia: Biology, Cognition and Intervention","author":"Hogben J H","year":"1997"},{"key":"bibr9-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1152\/jn.2001.85.5.2111"},{"key":"bibr10-p3204","first-page":"137","volume":"61","author":"Lovegrove W J","year":"1990","journal-title":"Journal of the American Optometric Association"},{"key":"bibr11-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/02643298608252677"},{"key":"bibr12-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1146\/annurev.ne.16.030193.002101"},{"key":"bibr13-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3758\/BF03194415"},{"key":"bibr14-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3758\/BF03206119"},{"key":"bibr15-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1126\/science.941023"},{"key":"bibr16-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/0033-2909.106.1.107"},{"key":"bibr17-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1068\/p100375"},{"key":"bibr18-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0042-6989(79)90044-0"},{"key":"bibr19-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/713756790"},{"key":"bibr20-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0166-2236(86)90064-0"},{"key":"bibr21-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0042-6989(99)00170-4"},{"key":"bibr22-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1364-6613(00)01485-6"},{"key":"bibr23-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Skottun B C, 2001 \u201cOn the use of metacontrast to assess magnocellular function in dyslexic readers\u201d Perception & Psychophysics (in press)","DOI":"10.3758\/BF03194540"},{"key":"bibr24-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/002221949903200101"},{"key":"bibr25-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0042-6989(98)00151-5"},{"key":"bibr26-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0010-9452(96)80002-5"},{"key":"bibr27-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00001756-199705260-00003"},{"key":"bibr28-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02424350"},{"key":"bibr29-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7551\/mitpress\/3877.001.0001"},{"key":"bibr30-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0952523800006155"},{"key":"bibr31-p3204","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1068\/p240919"}],"container-title":["Perception"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1068\/p3204","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1068\/p3204","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,30]],"date-time":"2026-04-30T22:13:51Z","timestamp":1777587231000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1068\/p3204"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2001,12]]},"references-count":31,"journal-issue":{"issue":"12","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2001,12]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1068\/p3204"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1068\/p3204","relation":{},"ISSN":["0301-0066","1468-4233"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0301-0066","type":"print"},{"value":"1468-4233","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2001,12]]}}}
