Large‐Sample Norms for Contrast Sensitivity

ABSTRACT A portable microprocessor‐controlled instrument automatically measured the static and dynamic contrast sensitivity functions (CSF's) of 265 observers for a normal population at the Dayton Air Fair and Air Force Museum. Repeat measures for six observers taken 6 months later show small, nonsystematic differences from original measurements. Median values of contrast sensitivity as well as regions encompassing 75 of 90% of our sample are shown.
