  • Title: Comparing the sensitivity of manual pursuit and perceptual judgments to pictorial depth effects.
    Author: López-Moliner J, Smeets JB, Brenner E.
    Journal: Psychol Sci; 2003 May; 14(3):232-6. PubMed ID: 12741746.
    Abstract:
    We examined whether a pictorial depth illusion influences the manual pursuit of a moving dot to the same extent that it influences the dot's apparent displacement. Fourteen subjects performed two tasks. In one case, they used their unseen hand to track a dot that moved on an elliptical path. In the other, they first watched the dot move on the same path, and then set an ellipse to match the shape of the dot's path. The illusion influenced the two tasks to the same extent, suggesting that the visual information processing is the same for the two tasks.
