A number of studies have explored visual symmetry processing by measuring event related
potentials and neural oscillatory activity. There is a sustained posterior negativity (SPN) …

Symmetry is an important and prominent feature of the visual world. It has been studied as a
basis for image segmentation and perceptual organization, but it also plays a role in higher …

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the influence of the symmetrical disposition
of information items displayed on the front of product packaging on perceived complexity …

Research on a growing number of vertebrate species has shown that the left and right sides
of the brain process information in different ways and that lateralized brain function is …

Cultural forms are constrained by cognitive biases, and writing is thought to have evolved to
fit basic visual preferences, but little is known about the history and mechanisms of that …

Perceptual organization is the process of giving structure to our experience of objects,
scenes, and events in the world. The literature on this complex and fascinating topic is huge …

Perceptual grouping refers to the process of determining which regions and parts of the
visual scene belong together as parts of higher order perceptual units such as objects or …

For more than 250 years, biblical Hebrew poetry scholarship has been dominated by
metrical assumptions and the idea of parallelism. While a consensus is emerging that …

Symmetry detection is slow when patterns are distorted by perspective, perhaps due to a
time‐consuming normalization process, or because discrimination relies on remaining …

Neuroimaging work has shown that visual symmetry activates extrastriate brain areas, most
consistently the lateral occipital complex (LOC). LOC activation increases with proportion of …
