How do great bowerbirds construct perspective illusions?
Many animals build structures to provide shelter, avoid predation, attract mates or house offspring, but the behaviour and potential cognitive processes involved during building are poorly understood. Great bowerbird (Ptilinorhynchus nuchalis) males build and maintain display courts by placing tens to hundreds of objects in a positive size-distance gradient. The visual angles created by the gra...
متن کاملA test of a perspective theory of geometrical illusions.
Three-dimensional Miiller-Lyer figures were used in three experiments to test a perspective theory of geometrical illusions. The real depth cues were in one of two orientations, designed either to support or to oppose the action of the perspective depth cues hypothesized by the perspective theory. If any illusion is obtained with these three-dimensional figures, the theory implies, its magnitud...
متن کاملCoherent perspective jitter induces visual illusions of self-motion.
Palmisano et al (2000 Perception 29 57-67) found that adding coherent perspective jitter to constant-velocity radial flow improved visually induced illusions of self-motion (vection). This was a surprising finding, because unlike pure radial flow, this jittering radial flow should have generated sustained visual--vestibular conflicts--previously thought to always reduce/impair vection. We attem...
متن کاملCrossmodal illusions in neurorehabilitation
In everyday life, many diverse bits of information, simultaneously derived from the different sensory channels, converge into discrete brain areas, and are ultimately synthetized into unified percepts. Such multisensory integration can dramatically alter the phenomenal experience of both environmental events and our own body. Crossmodal illusions are one intriguing product of multisensory integ...
متن کاملOrientation illusions in spaceflight.
Investigations of spontaneous illusory reactions were carried out during space-flights of various durations by ANKETA questionnaires (104 cosmonauts). From a total of 104 cosmonauts, 24, in addition, used a dictaphone to record a verbal description of the illusions and their sensations on tape. Analysis of data generated by ANKETA and the tapes thus recorded have shown that during adaptation to...
