abstract="A modified form of the Masson disk was used in an investigation of the relation between the fluctuation of sensation of liminal visual stimuli and the amount of eye movement. &quot;Few reliable differences in means… were obtained, but nevertheless certain persistent effects occurred. These were: ( a) The introduction of unlimited eye-movement caused an increase in the average period of sensibility when compared with the situation where no eye-movement was used. The use of limited eye-movement tended to show the opposite effect. ( b) The introduction of eye-movement of either type caused a decrease in the average period of insensibility… .&quot; It was found that with 4 of the 5 subjects the relation between the ratio of the mean sensible to the mean insensible period and the intensity of the stimulus could be expressed by a simple exponential equation in which both constants varied from subject to subject.
