Aging and the visual perception of object size
Scientific Reports, 2022 An experiment evaluated the ability of 30 younger and older adults to visually judge object size under three conditions: (1) full cue, (2) in the dark, with linear perspective, and (3) in complete darkness.

Seeing the Big Picture: Size Perception Is More Context Sensitive in the Presence of Others. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2015 This paper tests the hypothesis that social presence influences size perception by increasing context sensitivity. Consistent with Allport’s prediction, we expected to find greater context sensitivity in participants who perform a visual task in the ...

Obligatory averaging in mean size perception
Vision Research, 2014 The perception of ensemble characteristics is often regarded as an antidote to an established bottleneck in focused attention and working memory, both of which appear to be limited in capacity to a few objects only. In order to test the associative law of summation, observers were asked to estimate the mean size of four circles relative to a reference ...

Bilateral symmetry of distortions of tactile size perception [PDF]
Perception, 2015 The perceived distance between touches on the limbs is generally bigger for distances oriented across the width of the limb than for distances oriented along the length of the limb. The present study aimed to investigate the coherence of such distortions

Dissociations between the horizontal and dorsoventral axes in body-size perception. [PDF]
Eur J Neurosci, 2013 Body size can vary throughout a person's lifetime, inducing plasticity of the internal body representation. Changes in horizontal width accompany those in dorsal‐to‐ventral thickness.

Sensorimotor adaptation of size perception.
Journal of Vision, 2015 Sensorimotor adaptation is the process by which new associations between movements and their perceptual effects are learned. Previous work reported that the visual system learns associations between peripheral (coarse) and foveal (highly defined) images ...

Age-Related Decline of Low-Spatial-Frequency Bias in Context-Dependent Visual Size Perception [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2019 Global precedence has been found to decline or even shift to local precedence with increasing age. Little is known about the consequence of this age-related decline of global precedence on other aspects of older adults’ vision.
