abstract="The perception of simple visual targets superimposed on complex background images was studied. Background images interfered with target perception. At the periphery of the visual field, edge sharpness and relative motion within complex backgrounds determined the degree of interference. Increasing age of the subjects was associated with an increase in such interference. A correlation between target perception and self-reported vehicle accident history was observed.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
