Illusory contours and the ends of lines.

Abstract:

:A series of lines pointing towards a central region induces an illusory brightness effect that is systematically related to the angle formed by the lines and the contour of the illusory brightness. As the lines veer to become tangents the illusory brightness decreases.

  • Right Hemisphere Memory Bias Does Not Extend to Involuntary Memories for Negative Scenes.

    abstract::Attention is unequally distributed across the visual field. Due to greater right than left hemisphere activation for visuospatial attention, people attend slightly more to the left than the right side. As a result, people voluntarily remember visual stimuli better when it first appears in the left than the right visua...
