Out-of-body illusion induced by visual-vestibular stimulation
Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Florian Lance, Hsin-Ping Wu, Sophie Jacqueline Andrée Betka, Estelle Nakul
Out-of-body experiences (OBEs) are characterized by the subjective feeling of being located outside one's physical body and perceiving one's own body from an elevated perspective looking downwards. OBEs have been correlated with abnormal integration of bod ...
Cambridge2023The full-body illusion changes visual depth perception
Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Sophie Jacqueline Andrée Betka
Knowing where objects are relative to us implies knowing where we are relative to the external world. Here, we investigated whether space perception can be influenced by an experimentally induced change in perceived self-location. To dissociate real and ap ...
2023Hierarchical processing underpins competition in tactile perceptual bistability
Ambiguous sensory information can lead to spontaneous alternations between perceptual states, recently shown to extend to tactile perception. The authors recently proposed a simplified form of tactile rivalry which evokes two competing percepts for a fixed ...
SPRINGER2023The irreducibility of vision: Gestalt, crowding and the fundamentals of vision
What is fundamental in vision has been discussed for millennia. For philosophical realists and the physiological approach to vision, the objects of the outer world are truly given, and failures to perceive objects properly, such as in illusions, are just s ...
2022Individual differences in visual (mis)perception: a multivariate statistical approach
Common factors are omnipresent in everyday life, e.g., people who do well in one cognitive test are likely to perform well in other cognitive tests as well, and vice versa. In vision, however, there seems to be a multitude of specific factors rather than a ...
EPFL2021Individual differences in the perception of visual illusions are stable across eyes, time, and measurement methods
Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Lukasz Grzeczkowski
Vision scientists have tried to classify illusions for more than a century. For example, some studies suggested that there is a unique common factor for all visual illusions. Other studies proposed that there are several subclasses of illusions, such as il ...
