AB  - Odic and Pratt (2008, Perception, 37, 1790-1804) proposed that the type of 
      movement seen in the bistable Ternus display depends on the elements' temporal 
      summation of contrast relative to the background. To test this theory, 
      participants viewed a flicker-defined Ternus display where the elements had no 
      temporal summation of contrast. Participants also viewed a luminance-defined 
      control condition. Five interstimulus intervals (ISIs) (0, 20, 40, 60, and 80 ms) 
      and two stimulus durations (SDs) (200 and 400 ms) were used in each condition. If 
      temporal summation of contrast does not influence perceived group and end-to-end 
      movement in flicker-defined forms, it was expected that the frequency of their 
      reports would be equal to those in the luminance- defined control condition at 
      the same ISIs and SDs. As predicted, the main effect of condition was not 
      significant and participants reported both percepts at expected rates in both 
      conditions, contrary to the predictions of Odic and Pratt (2008).
