Abstract

To perceive a perfect Dora Maar in peripheral vision

Highlights

  • An inability to recognize objects resulted from clutter in peripheral vision is a phenomenon known as “crowding” (Bi et al, 2009)

  • Peripheral vision is the work of the rods, nerve cells located largely outside the macula of the retina

  • Each participant looked at Dora on screen from the frontal view for 5 s (Figure S2a in Supporting Information)

Summary

Introduction

We uncover how the inner-outer asymmetry (Whitney and Levi, 2011) of crowding effect on our perception of the disjunctive human appearance results in a perfect illusion in peripheral vision. Each participant looked at Dora on screen from the frontal view for 5 s (Figure S2a in Supporting Information). A group of three portraits was shown to participants (Figure S3, i, ii, iii, iv, v and vi, randomly assigned in Supporting Information) and they were asked to select the portrait that best matched what they had seen in their foveal vision.
