Contrast influence on perceived orientation
When two gratings of slightly different orientation and equal contrast are presented dichoptically the observer perceives a unique fused grating at an orientation intermediate between the two (cyclofusion). We show here that if the contrast of the two gratings is different the perceived orientation of the fused grating depends on the relative contrast of the two monocular images. The results show that the perceived orientation varies linearly with the contrast difference, provided that the contrast values of the gratings presented to each eye are such as to give rise to a fused image. In these conditions, the perceived orientation is the average of the two monocular orientations, weighted with their contrast

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
