Perceived displacement explains wolfpack effect
We investigate the influence of perceived displacement of moving agent-like stimuli on the performance in dynamic interactive tasks. In order to reliably measure perceived displacement we utilize multiple tasks with different task demands. The perceived center of an agent's body is displaced in the direction in which the agent is facing and this perceived displacement is larger than the theoret...
متن کاملA landmark effect in the perceived displacement of objects
Perceiving the displacement of an object after a visual distraction is an essential ability to interact with the world. Previous research has shown a bias to perceive the first object seen after a saccade as stable while the second one moving (landmark effect). The present study examines the generality and nature of this phenomenon. The landmark effect was observed in the absence of eye movemen...

Imagine a pack of predators stalking their prey. The predators may not always move directly toward their target (e.g., when circling around it), but they may be consistently facing toward it. The human visual system appears to be extremely sensitive to such situations, even in displays involving simple shapes. We demonstrate this by introducing the wolfpack effect, which is found when several r...
متن کاملOccam's Razor Explains Matthew Effect
Sociologists of science noticed that the results of many collaborative projects and discoveries are often attributed only to their most famous collaborators, even when the contributions of these famous collaborators were minimal. This phenomenon is known as the Matthew effect, after a famous citation from the Gospel of Matthew. In this article, we show that Occam’s razor provides a possible exp...
متن کاملPerceived spatial displacement of motion-defined contours in peripheral vision
The perceived displacement of motion-defined contours in peripheral vision was examined in four experiments. In Experiment 1, in line with Ramachandran and Anstis' finding [Ramachandran, V. S., & Anstis, S. M. (1990). Illusory displacement of equiluminous kinetic edges. Perception, 19, 611-616], the border between a field of drifting dots and a static dot pattern was apparently displaced in the...
