Exploring a brightness-drag illusion.

abstract：:The nature of the psychological processes that underlie the Gestalt principles of grouping by proximity and grouping by similarity is examined. Similarity was defined relative to the principles of grouping by common colour and grouping by common shape. Subjects were presented with displays comprising a row of seven co...
