Fig. I. A texture gradient of squares decreasing in size with increasing height on the screen. Subjects viewed the display monocularly without
seeing the edges of the screen. With their left arm, they adjusted a slanting plane to match the perceived slant of the display. The luminance of
the red squares was 4 cd/m 2 The chromaticity of the squares was x = 0.55, y = 0.32, and of the neutral background x = 0.26, y = 0.24 (Minolta
chroma meter).

Fig. 3. Stimuli used in second experiment. From top left, (A) Texture gradient, regular pattern; (B) No
texture gradient, irregular pattern; (C) Texture gradient, irregular pattern; (D) No texture gradient, regular
pattern. The experiment compared perceived slant between a uniform red pattern and one having the same
spatial structure but a gradient in saturation (e.g. red-grey), hue (e.g. red-green), or luminance (e.g.
red-black). Chromaticities of the colour gradients were as follows: red-grey from x = 0.60, y = 0.35
(bottom row) to x = 0.26, y = 0.25 (top row); red-green from x = 0.61, y = 0.35 (bottom row) to x = 0.30,
y = 0.49 (top row). All displays except the luminance-gradient stimuli were isoluminant with a luminance
value of 4 cd/m2

Fig. 2. Mean results for four subjects showing the relationship between perceived slant and luminance contrast. The
ordinate labelled "0" is each subject's isoluminant point as
determined by flicker photometry. There is no reduction in
perceived slant at this point.
