Vision Research, 1996 We investigated motion perception in peripheral vision (10-40 deg eccentricity) for drifting gratings above and below the Nyquist limit set by neural sampling of the retinal image. We found that psychometric functions for motion discrimination rarely exhibited worse-than-chance performance indicative of motion reversal.
