Walking on Visual Illusions [PDF]
i-Perception, 2021 In nature, sensory and physical characteristics of the environment tend to match; for example, a surface that looks bumpy is bumpy. In human-built environments, they often don’t.

Aesthetic Valence of Visual Illusions [PDF]
i-Perception, 2012 Visual illusions constitute an interesting perceptual phenomenon, but they also have an aesthetic and affective dimension. We hypothesized that the illusive nature itself causes the increased aesthetic and affective valence of illusions compared with ...

What Are Visual Illusions?* [PDF]
Perception, 2020 Visual illusions have been a popular topic of study for a long time, but in recent years, a number of authors have questioned the coherence of this notion. This article deals in depth with ways in which illusions have been, could be, and should be defined and with various criticisms and different conceptions of the notion of illusions.

Visual Illusions: An interesting tool to investigate developmental dyslexia and autism spectrum disorder [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016 A visual illusion refers to a percept that is different in some aspect from the physical stimulus. Illusions are a powerful non-invasive tool for understanding the neurobiology of vision, telling us, indirectly, how the brain processes visual stimuli ...

Specific visual expertise reduces susceptibility to visual illusions [PDF]
Scientific ReportsExtensive exposure to specific kinds of imagery tunes visual perception, enhancing recognition and interpretation abilities relevant to those stimuli (e.g. radiologists can rapidly extract important information from medical scans). For the first time, we
