Peer reviewedDiLorenzo, Joseph R.; Rock, Irvin – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1982
The underestimation (righting) of frame-of-reference tilt correlates with the perception of the vertical rod as tilted in the opposite direction (the rod-and-frame effect). The rod-and-frame effect can be thought of as the solution to the problem of the rod's tilt given the perceived tilt of the frame. (Author/PN)

Peer reviewedHaller, Otto; Edgington, Eugene S. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1982
Rod-and-frame test data of undergraduates were subjected to pattern analysis, which showed that most tilt toward the spatial position of the frame, while some utilize two frame cues, i.e., the nearest to vertical side and corner of the frame. Other interpretations of performance were not supported by results. (Author/RD)
