Basis of the horizontal-vertical illusion.
Three experiments were designed to determine the basis of the horizontalvertical (HV) illusion using an L figure. Experiment I showed that there were no differences in the size of the effect in darkness, semidarkness, and in the light, a result contrary to the visual field explanation. In Exp. II the figure was viewed in the dark with 5s upright and recumbent, and in Exp. Ill the L figure was o...
متن کاملA simple model of the vertical–horizontal illusion
In spite of being one of the most elementary visual effects, the vertical-horizontal illusion is still poorly understood. We provide here a simple quantitative model to describe the overestimation of the vertical segment relative to the horizontal one. The model also includes a necessary factor related to the effect of bisecting a line on the under-estimation of its length. These two factors, o...
متن کاملDeterminants of the Perceived Vertical and Horizontal
The fact that the seen world appears upright is so obvious that it may seem axiomatic. Nevertheless this verticalhorizontal stability of phenomenal things is as much a psychological problem as their coloration, size, or distance. Stratton once asked the question, "why do things look right side up instead of inverted?" But a different and more fundamental question is, "why do things look right s...
متن کاملVisually perceived vertical and visually perceived horizontal are not orthogonal
The authors examined the difference in errors made by eight subjects in setting a bar of light in an otherwise darkened room to either visually perceived vertical (VPV) or visually perceived horizontal (VPH) during maintained roll-tilted positions around the naso-occipital axis. Two viewing distances were examined, 25 and 60 cm. Subjects were tested at roll-tilt angles of 10 degrees intervals f...
متن کاملVertical-horizontal illusion: one eye is better than two.
The vertical-horizontal illusion is the tendency for observers to overestimate the length of a vertical line relative to a horizontal line that has the same length. One explanation of this illusion is that the visual field is elongated in the horizontal direction, and that the vertical-horizontal illusion is a kind of framing effect (Künnapas, 1957a, 1957b, 1957c). Since the monocular visual fi...
