The metacontrast paradigm was exploited to study possible inhibitory interactions between sustained and transient channels. Variations and measures of target disinhibition or target recovery. The former type of target recovery is taken as evidence for interchannel sustained-on-transient inhibition; the latter, as evidence for intrachannel transient-on-transient inhibition.
