With this work, we provide insights into symmetry detection and its underlying processes using a novel bounding-box method on 200 images of natural scenes and 200 images of artworks. In a large online study, 901 participants were asked to indicate regions of symmetry within each image by placing a rectangular bounding box on the image, adjusting it to the region of symmetry they perceived, and marking one of the two axes of the rectangle as the main symmetry axis. They could do this for as many boxes as they saw fit, and they could also use the same bounding box to mark both orthogonal axes in case of double symmetries. For every box, participants also rated the saliency of the region as well as the perceived strength of the symmetry. Next to these behavioral tasks, we asked participants in a separate block to rate the aesthetic appeal of the images. Our new method replicates the previously established dominance of vertical axes of symmetry in dot-patterns and geometric shapes in real-world images. Moreover, we noted a decrease in salience, symmetry strength, and size with the number of boxes within an image. We present the results in relation to our hypotheses and discuss their contribution to the broader literature on symmetry and aesthetics, including a comparison between human and machine vision.","PeriodicalId":47194,"journal":{"name":"I-Perception","volume":"17 5","pages":"20416695261474745"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13554594/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148921285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous research has suggested that other-race faces may be processed with a comparatively reduced reliance on configural (and more featural) information than own-race faces. The own-race bias refers to the tendency to recognise faces from a more familiar morphological group - mostly the own 'race' - faster and with higher accuracy than faces from less familiar groups. The present study tried to identify differences in processing own- and other-race faces (Thatcherised or not) across seven orientations ranging from 0° to 180° in 30° steps. For own-race faces, reaction times (RTs) to Thatcherised stimuli descriptively followed a sigmoidal function with a marked increase around 120° rotation, reflecting a typical reduced efficiency of configural processing once faces were rotated by more than 90°. For other-race faces, RTs increased more gradually and approximately linearly across orientations, consistent with reliance on featural processing. Accuracy was lowest for Thatcherised other-race faces with a steep decline starting between 30° and 60° of rotation. Overall, the results suggest a processing advantage for own-race faces that may rely more strongly on configural processing, whereas other-race faces appear to be processed with comparatively greater reliance on feature-based strategies.","PeriodicalId":47194,"journal":{"name":"I-Perception","volume":"17 5","pages":"20416695261480594"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13554658/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148921313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent work by Boger and Franconeri (2024, Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 153, 1699-1704) revealed that the spatial design of simple bar charts can strongly alter which relationships viewers detect or miss. In Experiment 1, we replicated their adjacency advantage, showing that misleading relationships in grouped bar charts are more often detected when in adjacent versus non-adjacent (\"interleaved\") bars. In Experiment 2, we tested whether color-either static or dynamic-could benefit the detection of interleaved relationships, analogous to the advantage of adjacency in Experiment 1. The two bars containing the misleading relationship were either red or gradually changed from gray to red, with the other two bars in gray. We found no evidence for improved detection with static or dynamic color cues relative to when all bars were uniformly gray. Our findings suggest that the spatial layout of graphs strongly determines which relationships are detected, and reveals limitations of color-based highlighting in guiding our interpretation of bar charts.","PeriodicalId":47194,"journal":{"name":"I-Perception","volume":"17 5","pages":"20416695261481745"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13547810/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148907707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although these emotions are influenced by context and situation, they can also be directly evoked by simple image features encoded in the early visual system. The present study examined how chromatic information in visual stimuli contributes to the perception of two negative emotions: disgust and fear. Participants rated the degree of disgust and fear elicited by 100 chromatic images and their achromatic counterparts. Results showed that the removal of chromatic information significantly reduced perceived disgust, while having little effect on perceived fear. Furthermore, an analysis of the relationship between image category and negative emotion indicated that distant \"scenes\" (e.g., landscapes), which tend to depict wide and distant spaces, were more likely to elicit fear, whereas proximal \"surfaces\" (e.g., close-up views of textures or objects) were more likely to elicit disgust. These findings suggest that chromatic information plays a particularly important role in the perception of disgust, especially for surface-related stimuli, whereas fear appears to rely less on chromatic cues.","PeriodicalId":47194,"journal":{"name":"I-Perception","volume":"17 4","pages":"20416695261470309"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13473786/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148761804","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The display brings together a number of previously documented illusory effects and perceptual mechanisms to generate non-rigidly deforming phantom surfaces that take even experienced observers by surprise. There are only two physically drawn components to the display: a shape with a sinewave-modulated contour and a regular 'pinstripe' background grating. When the shape is superimposed on the grating, and relative motion is added, a third element immediately emerges. This is a dynamic illusory wave (diwa): a coherent, deforming illusory surface that often appears as a transparent layer partially occluding the two physically drawn components. The nature of the illusory wave is primarily a function of the spatial frequency ratio between the periodic patterning of the physical shape and the grating, but changing the relative speed, amplitude, or contrast of the drawn components also modulates the nature of the perceived surface. We discuss and make available an online interactive tool so that readers can further create and explore their own examples of such dynamic illusory waves.","PeriodicalId":47194,"journal":{"name":"I-Perception","volume":"17 4","pages":"20416695261468555"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13434327/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148674012","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The strength of the lustrous impression in the central target patch varies with increasing ring width, with the direction of this variation (increasing or decreasing) depending on the ring's luminance. In this study, we used stimuli in which the ring was split into segments with two different luminances that in uniform rings had opposite effects on perceived luster. The aim was to investigate how the lustrous impression is influenced by combining a weaker and a stronger contrast effect, in particular how they are spatially integrated by the visual system. In a psychophysical matching experiment, subjects had to assess the strength of the lustrous impression in a series of test stimuli with different ring widths, numbers of ring segments, and spatial proportions between the two ring parts. We found that the results of the experiment could neither be explained by a winner-takes-all integration (assuming that the lustrous response is completely determined by the stronger effect) nor by a balanced integration process (assuming equal weights for the two effects). Instead, both effects contribute to the overall lustrous response, with the stronger effect having a greater weight. Interestingly, the magnitude of this weight varied considerably between different groups of subjects. We found two main trends in the data, representing two different types of sensitivity to the phenomenon of binocular luster.","PeriodicalId":47194,"journal":{"name":"I-Perception","volume":"17 4","pages":"20416695261459968"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13373365/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148473493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Temporal integration in vision was assessed using slit-viewing tasks that require unifying successive partial views of a moving target into a coherent percept. This task also requires inference ability when the targets are complex, as in line drawings. We hypothesized that imagination difficulties would be more closely related to inference difficulties than to temporal integration difficulties. To test this, we conducted an experiment with 67 Japanese university students using slit-viewing tasks with line drawings, characters, and meaningless shapes, as well as a fill-in-the-blank task involving word inference. The results showed that neither imagination difficulties nor overall autistic traits were associated with performance in any of these tasks.
