The role of conceptual knowledge in understanding synaesthesia: Evaluating contemporary findings from a “hub-and-spokes” perspective

R Chiou, AN Rich - Frontiers in Psychology, 2014 - frontiersin.org
Synesthesia is a phenomenon in which stimulation in one sensory modality triggers
involuntary experiences typically not associated with that stimulation. Inducing stimuli …

TJ Noseworthy, J Cotte, SH Lee - Journal of Consumer …, 2011 - academic.oup.com
Evidence from three experiments shows that due to superior visuo-spatial elaboration,
females (relative to males) have a heightened ability to identify visually incongruent products …

A real-life illusion of assimilation in the human face: eye size illusion caused by eyebrows and eye shadow

K Morikawa, S Matsushita, A Tomita… - Frontiers in Human …, 2015 - frontiersin.org
Does an assimilative illusion like the Delboeuf illusion occur in the human face? We

Cortical distance determines whether flankers cause crowding or the tilt illusion

I Mareschal, MJ Morgan, JA Solomon - Journal of Vision, 2010 - jov.arvojournals.org
Differences between target and flanker orientations become exaggerated in the tilt illusion.
However, small differences sometimes go unnoticed. This small-angle assimilation shares …

[HTML][HTML] Stereoscopic slant contrast revisited

Y Yakobi - Journal of Vision, 2024 - tvst.arvojournals.org
The perceived slant of a stereoscopic surface is altered by the presence of a surrounding
surface, a phenomenon termed stereo slant contrast. Previous studies have shown that a …

[HTML][HTML] Interactions between colour and synaesthetic colour: An effect of simultaneous colour contrast on synaesthetic colours

TCW Nijboer, T Gebuis, SF te Pas, MJ van der Smagt - Vision Research, 2011 - Elsevier
We investigated whether simultaneous colour contrast affects the synaesthetic colour
experience and normal colour percept in a similar manner. We simultaneously presented a …

[HTML][HTML] Perception of 3D shape in context: Contrast and assimilation

K van der Kooij, SF Te Pas - Vision Research, 2009 - Elsevier
Whereas integration of shape and surround is held to occur through cue-dependent
representations, we show that both cue-invariant and cue-dependent representations are …

Stereo-curvature aftereffect is due to more than shape curvature adaptation

P Yan, H Shigemasu - Perception, 2015 - journals.sagepub.com
For stereo-curvature aftereffect (sCAE), there is no agreement on whether adaptation occurs
at the disparity-specified stage, the percept-specified stage, or both. Additionally, it remains …

[HTML][HTML] Shape contrast: A global mechanism?

K van der Kooij, SF te Pas - Vision research, 2010 - Elsevier
We investigated whether a shape contrast bias is caused by local contrast enhancement or
by a global mechanism. In a baseline condition, observers performed a shape discrimination …

Contextual effects of scene on the visual perception of object orientation in depth

R Niimi, K Watanabe - PloS one, 2013 - journals.plos.org
