Isoluminant stimuli are used increasingly often to investigate processes underlying visual word recognition. However, construction of isoluminant stimuli is not straightforward, and inappropriate construction may have the result of misinforming theories that relate word recognition to neurological function. To inform the use of isoluminant stimuli in studies of word recognition, the present article details two experiments in which isoluminant stimuli were constructed using physical onscreen luminance matching and heterochromatic flicker photometry (HFP) with four different stimulus types: disks, squares, rectangles, and letter strings. The findings reveal (1) substantial differences between isoluminance determined by physical onscreen luminance matching and HFP, (2) substantial differences in HFP isoluminance across stimulus types, and (3) substantial differences in HFP isoluminance across participants. These findings indicate that, in contrast to common practice in word recognition research, HFP provides a better indication of isoluminance than physical onscreen matching; but HFP stimuli should match those used in the experiment proper and should be used to assess isoluminance individually for each participant.
