Pooling elementary motion signals into perception of global motion direction
Six observers were asked to indicate in which of two opposite directions, to the right or to the left, an entire display appeared to move, based on the proportion of right vs leftward motion elements, each of which was distinctly visible. The performance of each observer was described by Thurstone's discriminative processes and Bernoulli trial models which described empirical psychometric funct...
متن کاملPerception of animacy and direction from local biological motion signals.
We present three experiments that investigated the perception of animacy and direction from local biological motion cues. Coherent and scrambled point-light displays of humans, cats, and pigeons that were upright or inverted were embedded in a random dot mask and presented to naive observers. Observers assessed the animacy of the walker on a six-point Likert scale in Experiment 1, discriminated...
متن کاملSuccessive episodes produce direction contrast effects in motion perception
Motion coherence thresholds decline with an increase in the number of frames in a random dot kinematogram (RDK), indicating that motion information can be integrated across successive frames. We investigated whether such temporal integration would be disrupted by a brief interval (32-600 msec) inserted into a motion sequence, perceptually dividing it into two successive episodes. Both episodes ...
متن کاملDirection anisotropy of human motion perception depends on stimulus speed
A number of previous studies have extensively investigated directional anisotropy in motion perception. However, consensus has not been reached regarding the nature of motion directional anisotropies in human vision. In this study, we investigated the directional anisotropy of human motion perception by moving random-dot stimuli in the peripheral upper visual field. Our findings show that the d...
متن کاملNo Correlation between Distorted Body Representations Underlying Tactile Distance Perception and Position Sense
Both tactile distance perception and position sense are believed to require that immediate afferent signals be referenced to a stored representation of body size and shape (the body model). For both of these abilities, recent studies have reported that the stored body representations involved are highly distorted, at least in the case of the hand, with the hand dorsum represented as wider and s...
