Abstract
This research is concerned with the variance of average evoked responses (AER) under conditions of habituation and that of attentive viewing. The major findings suggest that habituation is the result of increased activity in central sensory systems but an activity that is less organized than that resulting from attentive-state stimulation. Data are also presented which assess certain broad assumptions common to AER research.Keywords
