Home›Perception and Psychophysics Effects›Phenomenon Family›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 (22)Psychophysics (4)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)1992 (1)1999 (1)2001 (1)2003 (1)Type of PhenomenonAllCognitive Phenomenon (4)Emotional Phenomenon (2)Perceptual Phenomenon (29)In GroupAllMotion And Depth Perception (35)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 35Autokinetic EffectPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkBarberpole IllusionPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkBeta MovementPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkBroken Escalator PhenomenonPerception and Psychophysics EffectsChromostereopsisPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkColor Phi PhenomenonPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkContingent AftereffectPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkConvergence MicropsiaPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkDelboeuf IllusionPerception and Psychophysics EffectsEbbinghaus IllusionPerception and Psychophysics Effects2 linksIllusions of Self-MotionPerception and Psychophysics EffectsIllusory ContoursPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkIrradiation IllusionPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkKinetic Depth EffectPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkLaw of SimilarityPerception and Psychophysics EffectsMandelbaum EffectPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkMicro-ExpressionPerception and Psychophysics EffectsMoon IllusionPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkMotion ParallaxPerception and Psychophysics EffectsMotion-Induced BlindnessPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkPerceptual ConstancyPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkPeripheral Drift IllusionPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkPhi PhenomenonPerception and Psychophysics Effects2 linksPonzo IllusionPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkPseudoneglectPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkPulfrich EffectPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkReificationPerception and Psychophysics EffectsShepard TablesPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkSize-Weight IllusionPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkStepping Feet IllusionPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkStereopsisPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkStroboscopic EffectPerception and Psychophysics EffectsTernus IllusionPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkUncanny ValleyPerception and Psychophysics Effects1 linkVectionPerception and Psychophysics EffectsSources1.
