DiLorenzo, 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)

Durgin, Frank H.; Gigone, Krista; Scott, Rebecca – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2005
During self-motion, the world normally appears stationary. In part, this may be due to reductions in visual motion signals during self-motion. In 8 experiments, the authors used magnitude estimation to characterize changes in visual speed perception as a result of biomechanical self-motion alone (treadmill walking), physical translation alone…

Richardson, Michael J.; Marsh, Kerry L.; Schmidt, R. C. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2005
Previous research has demonstrated that people's movements can become unintentionally coordinated during interpersonal interaction. The current study sought to uncover the degree to which visual and verbal (conversation) interaction constrains and organizes the rhythmic limb movements of coactors. Two experiments were conducted in which pairs of…
