THE FLICKER RESPONSE CONTOUR FOR THE FROG

The flicker response contour for the frog Rana pipiens exhibits the duplex character typical for most vertebrates. By comparison (under the same conditions of temperature, 21.5°, and light-time fraction, = 0.5), the low intensity section of the F - log I curve is the smallest thus far found. The con...

description The flicker response contour for the frog Rana pipiens exhibits the duplex character typical for most vertebrates. By comparison (under the same conditions of temperature, 21.5°, and light-time fraction, = 0.5), the low intensity section of the F - log I curve is the smallest thus far found. The cone portion of the curve is satisfactorily described by a probability integral. The rod part represents the addition of a small group of sensory effects upon the lower end of the cone curve, from which it can be analytically separated. The relation between the two groups of sensory effects permits certain tests of the rule according to which (in homogeneous data) I(m) and σ(1I1) are in direct proportion.
