The familiar-size cue to distance and stereoscopic depth perception.

Abstract:

:The role of the familiar-size cue to distance in stereoscopic depth perception was examined in two experiments. In experiment 1 subjects judged the depth of a binocularly viewed interval, the far point of which was defined by either a familiar or an unfamiliar object, and in experiment 2 subjects adjusted the depth of the interval so that its extent appeared equal to the length of a vertical reference extent positioned on the surface of the object. Although familiar size influenced depth estimates (experiment 1) it did not influence matching judgments (experiment 2). The findings are discussed with reference to the issue of the nature of the familiar-size effects on judgments of stereoscopic depth.

  • The influence of feature conjunction on object inversion and conversion effects.

    abstract::The face inversion effect is considered by some as a marker ofholistic or configural processing. In an effort to understand the relations between object orientation and the use of configuration for recognition, we explored the extent to which the combination of information across discrete, spatially separated object f...

It has been tacitly assumed that this effect is due to inversion relative to retinal coordinates. Here we tested whether it is du...
