Synopsis
Excerpt from The Factors That Influence the Sensitivity of the Retina to Color: A Quantitative Study and Methods of Standardizing; A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of Bryn Mawr College in Partlal Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy
The following study, practically as is here presented, was submitted to the Faculty of Bryn Mawr College in May 1911 in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. It is the outgrowth of a series of studies dealing with the phenomena of color vision that was begun in 1908 by the writer working under the direction of and in col laboration with Professor C. E. Ferree of Bryn Mawr College. In order to Show in what way the present study, which deals with the formulation of a technique for investigating color sensitivity, is the logical outcome of the initial studies in the series, and is, moreover,'required for the completion of the later studies, a. Brief résumé will be given of the work undertaken in the investigations preceding and following it.
