Home›Memory Biases and Effects›In Group›Motion And Depth PerceptionGroupMotion And Depth PerceptionA perceptual phenomenon describing how the visual and vestibular systems judge movement, depth, distance, size and spatial orientation, a foundational domain of psychophysics because accurate motion and depth perception depends on the brain resolving genuinely ambiguous sensory information. This group gathers the motion, depth and spatial perception phenomena recorded for this atlas, covering documented effects in how movement, distance, scale and balance are perceived, including situations in which that perception is reliably fooled.FactsBrowse BySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonSensory ModalityWell-attestedVisual 1Sensory ModalityWell-attestedVestibular 2Browse ByAll Motion And Depth PerceptionMotion And Depth Perception35 entriesMotion And Depth PerceptionFilter Results35 entriesBranch of PsychologyAllCognitive Psychology (1)Psychophysics (3)Phenomenon FamilyAllMotion And Depth Perception (35)Associated PsychologistAllHermann Ebbinghaus (1)Max Wertheimer (1)First Described EraAll1799 (1)1833 (1)1865 (1)1891 (1)1911 (1)1912 (1)1922 (1)1923 (1)1960 (1)1966 (1)1970 (1)1981 (1)1999 (1)2001 (1)Type of PhenomenonAllCognitive Phenomenon (4)Emotional Phenomenon (2)Perceptual Phenomenon (29)BrowseCompareSelect all 35Autokinetic EffectPerception and Psychophysics EffectsBarberpole IllusionPerception and Psychophysics EffectsBeta MovementPerception and Psychophysics EffectsBroken Escalator PhenomenonPerception and Psychophysics EffectsChromostereopsisPerception and Psychophysics EffectsColor Phi PhenomenonPerception and Psychophysics EffectsContingent AftereffectPerception and Psychophysics EffectsConvergence MicropsiaPerception and Psychophysics EffectsDelboeuf IllusionPerception and Psychophysics EffectsEbbinghaus IllusionPerception and Psychophysics Effects2 linksIllusions of Self-MotionPerception and Psychophysics EffectsIllusory ContoursPerception and Psychophysics EffectsIrradiation IllusionPerception and Psychophysics EffectsKinetic Depth EffectPerception and Psychophysics EffectsLaw of SimilarityPerception and Psychophysics EffectsMandelbaum EffectPerception and Psychophysics EffectsMicro-ExpressionPerception and Psychophysics EffectsMoon IllusionPerception and Psychophysics EffectsMotion ParallaxPerception and Psychophysics EffectsMotion-Induced BlindnessPerception and Psychophysics EffectsPerceptual ConstancyPerception and Psychophysics EffectsPeripheral Drift IllusionPerception and Psychophysics EffectsPhi PhenomenonPerception and Psychophysics Effects2 linksPonzo IllusionPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkPseudoneglectPerception and Psychophysics EffectsPulfrich EffectPerception and Psychophysics EffectsReificationPerception and Psychophysics EffectsShepard TablesPerception and Psychophysics EffectsSize-Weight IllusionPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkStepping Feet IllusionPerception and Psychophysics EffectsStereopsisPerception and Psychophysics EffectsStroboscopic EffectPerception and Psychophysics EffectsTernus IllusionPerception and Psychophysics EffectsUncanny ValleyPerception and Psychophysics EffectsVectionPerception and Psychophysics EffectsSources1.
