an optical illusion.
Most size illusions were therefore caused by perceptual mistakes about distance.
They show that when the illusion's perceptual effects are studied with single-circle presentations there are no differences between the two types of responses.
All perceived distal relationships, and most illusions, seemed quantitatively predictable, within this unified enterprise, making it an admirable first start at a theory of perception.
Many studies have compared information processing in the dorsal and ventral pathways by comparing the influence of illusions in perceptual and motor tasks.
When the proper physics are employed, errors, illusions, and variability should decrease.
In fact, one may argue that these illusions are not illusions at all, because the visual system as such provides the correct percept.
Parenthetically, if our theoretical position is correct, then losing crucial perceptual processing hardware should thereby also destroy the effects of pictorial illusions on action planning.
Many findings are consistent with the idea that visual illusions influence perception more than action.
