Wainman, Bruce; Pukas, Giancarlo; Wolak, Liliana; Mohanraj, Sylvia; Lamb, Jason; Norman, Geoffrey R. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2020
Anatomy education has been revolutionized through digital media, resulting in major advances in realism, portability, scalability, and user satisfaction. However, while such approaches may well be more portable, realistic, or satisfying than traditional photographic presentations, it is less clear that they have any superiority in terms of student…

Wagemans, Johan; Elder, James H.; Kubovy, Michael; Palmer, Stephen E.; Peterson, Mary A.; Singh, Manish; von der Heydt, Rudiger – Psychological Bulletin, 2012
In 1912, Max Wertheimer published his paper on phi motion, widely recognized as the start of Gestalt psychology.

Geuss, Michael N.; Stefanucci, Jeanine K.; Creem-Regehr, Sarah H.; Thompson, William B. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2012
Three experiments examined perceived absolute distance in a head-mounted display virtual environment (HMD-VE) and a matched real-world environment, as a function of the type and orientation of the distance viewed. In Experiment 1, participants turned and walked, without vision, a distance to match the viewed interval for both egocentric…

Kogo, Naoki; Strecha, Christoph; Van Gool, Luc; Wagemans, Johan – Psychological Review, 2010
Human visual perception is a fundamentally relational process: Lightness perception depends on luminance ratios, and depth perception depends on occlusion (difference of depth) cues. Neurons in low-level visual cortex are sensitive to the difference (but not the value itself) of signals, and these differences have to be used to reconstruct the…
