Observing an action performed by another person to learn a new movement is a frequent experience in adult daily life, such as in sports. However, it is an especially common circumstance during the development of motor skills in childhood. Studies on health ...
This research aims at developing a hybrid choice model (HCM) where a perceptional variable is measured by means of adjectives reported by individuals. Due to the qualitative nature of adjectives, the main challenges of the study involve their quantificatio ...
Due to the movements of the observer and those of objects in the environment, retinotopic representations are highly unstable during ecological viewing conditions. The phenomenal stability of our perception suggests that retinotopic representations are tra ...
In crowding, target perception is deteriorated by flanking elements. For example, when a vernier is flanked by two lines of the same length, vernier offset discrimination strongly deteriorates. Interestingly, changing the color of the flankers can reduce c ...

The perception of ensemble characteristics is often regarded as an antidote to an established bottleneck in focused attention and working memory, both of which appear to be limited in capacity to a few objects only. In order to test the associative law of ...
Perception depends on the interplay of ongoing spontaneous activity and stimulus-evoked activity in sensory cortices. This raises the possibility that training ongoing spontaneous activity alone might be sufficient for enhancing perceptual sensitivity. To ...
The Swiss housing market is characterised by an extraordinarily low vacancy rate, generally in the vicinity of 1%. Is it permanently in a condition of severe shortage? This paper uses both a standard non-accelerating rent inflation rate of vacancy approach ...
In peripheral crowding, target perception can be strongly deteriorated by nearby flankers. What happens if flanker “A” crowds flanker “B” and “B” crowds target “C”? At 9° eccentricity, we determined offset discrimination thresholds for verniers. When the v ...
People tend to grossly overestimate the size of their mirror-reflected face. Although this overestimation bias is robust, not much is known about its relationships to self-face perception. In two experiments, we investigated the overestimation bias as a fu ...
