Amplitude Spectra of Line-Motion StimuliPerception - Tập 40 Số 6 - Trang 656-673 - 2011
Bernt C. Skottun
The line-motion illusion has been regarded as the result of attention. An alternative interpretation is that the illusion is related to apparent motion which would predict the stimuli to contain motion energy associated with the direction of the illusory motion. In order to examine this possibility Fourier transforms of x – t plots of line-motion stimuli were generated under a variety of ...... hiện toàn bộ
Intraattribute and Interattribute Motion InductionPerception - Tập 23 Số 8 - Trang 913-928 - 1994
Michael von Grünau, Jocelyn Faubert
The phenomenon of motion induction occurs, for example, when a bar that is presented next to a spot, which itself was presented slightly earlier, is not correctly perceived to appear everywhere simultaneously, but seems to grow out of the spot. The spot is said to prime one end of the bar. Experiments have been designed to throw more light on the local and global aspects of this phenomeno...... hiện toàn bộ
Processing Time of Contour Integration: The Role of Colour, Contrast, and CurvaturePerception - Tập 30 Số 7 - Trang 833-853 - 2001
William H.A. Beaudot, Kathy T. Mullen
We investigated the temporal properties of the red-green, blue – yellow, and luminance mechanisms in a contour-integration task which required the linking of orientation across space to detect a ‘path’. Reaction times were obtained for simple detection of the stimulus regardless of the presence of a path, and for path detection measured by a yes/no procedure with path and no-path stimuli ...... hiện toàn bộ
Predicting the Future Position of a Moving TargetPerception - Tập 20 Số 1 - Trang 5-16 - 1991
Carolyn Peterken, Brian Brown, K. J. Bowman
Three experiments were conducted to examine the processes underlying the prediction of the future position of a moving target. A target moved horizontally across a computer screen at constant velocity, disappearing partway across the screen, and subjects responded when they estimated the target would have passed a point on the far side of the screen, had it continued on its path. The firs...... hiện toàn bộ
When is Motion ‘Motion’?Perception - Tập 37 Số 4 - Trang 624-627 - 2008
Erik Blaser, George Sperling
Examples of visual motion have become more and more abstract over the years, leading up to ‘third-order’ stimuli where direction is actually determined by the observer through top–down attention. But how far can this be pushed—are there motion stimuli that are yet more arbitrary and abstract? Actually, there is a broad class of ‘conceptual motion’ stimuli—things like a moving grating of f...... hiện toàn bộ
The Relationship between Visual Persistence and Event Perception in Bistable Motion DisplayPerception - Tập 19 Số 4 - Trang 437-445 - 1990
Clara Casco
observers viewed two alternating frames, each consisting of three rectangular bars displaced laterally by one cycle in one frame with respect to the other. At long interframe intervals (IFIs) observers perceived a group of three bars moving as a whole (group motion), and at short IFIs the overlapping elements in the two frames appeared stationary, while the third element appeared to move ...... hiện toàn bộ
The Evolution of Explanations of a Perceptual Phenomenon: A Case History Using the Ternus EffectPerception - Tập 35 Số 6 - Trang 807-821 - 2006
J. Timothy Petersik, Curran M Rice
The Ternus effect involves a multi-element stimulus that can lead to either of two different percepts of apparent movement depending upon a variety of stimulus conditions. Since Ternus's 1926 discussion of this phenomenon, many researchers have attempted to explain it. We examine the history of explanations of the Ternus effect and show that they have evolved to contemporary theoretical p...... hiện toàn bộ
Perceptual Organization of Apparent Motion in the Ternus DisplayPerception - Tập 28 Số 7 - Trang 877-892 - 1999
Zijiang J. He, Teng Leng Ooi
A typical Ternus display has three sequentially presented frames, in which frame 1 consists of three motion tokens, frame 2 (blank) defines the interstimulus interval, and frame 3 has similar motion tokens with their relative positions shifted to the right. Interestingly, what appears to be a seemingly simple arrangement of stimuli can induce one of two distinct apparent-motion percepts i...... hiện toàn bộ
Spatial Correspondence and Relation Correspondence: Grouping Factors That Influence Perception of the Ternus DisplayPerception - Tập 37 Số 5 - Trang 725-739 - 2008
J. Timothy Petersik, Curran M Rice
We cite two different perceptual-correspondence principles whose emphasis can help to disambiguate the otherwise ambiguous Ternus display in apparent movement (a display that can alternately be seen in one of two possible configurations). One of these principles is spatial correspondence, which emphasizes the maintenance of similar stimulus elements in given locations over time. The other...... hiện toàn bộ
