Contribution of global and local biological motion information to speed perception and discrimination.
To respond to movements of others and understand the intention of others' actions, it is important to accurately extract motion information from body movements. Here, using original and spatially scrambled point-light biological motions in upright and inverted orientations, we investigated the effect of global and local biological motion information on speed perception and sensitivity. The spee...
متن کاملLocal and global information in biological motion
Animate motion patterns are a rich source of biologically significant information. They quickly and reliably signal the presence of an animate agent and convey its identity, actions and intentions. Observing other people in motion, our visual system is able to retrieve information about sex, age and weight of a person and can even detect signatures that identify a familiar individual. The relev...
متن کاملLocal-to-global form interference in biological motion perception.
Point-light walkers have been useful to study the contribution of form and motion to biological motion perception by manipulating the lifetime, number, or spatial distribution of the light points. Recent studies have also manipulated the light points themselves, replacing them with small images of objects. This manipulation degraded the recognizability of biological motion, particularly for loc...
متن کاملCharacterizing global and local mechanisms in biological motion perception.
The perception of biological motion is subserved by both a global process that retrieves structural information and a local process that is sensitive to individual limb motions. Here, we present an experiment aimed to characterize these two mechanisms psychophysically. Naive observers were tested on one of two tasks. In a walker detection task designed to address global processing, observers we...
متن کاملThe perception and discrimination of speed in complex motion
Random dot kinematograms were used to simulate radial, rotational and spiral optic flow. The stimuli were designed so that, while dot speed increased linearly with distance from the centre of the display, the density of dots remained uniform throughout their presentation. In two experiments, subjects were required to perform a temporal 2AFC speed discrimination task. Experiment 1 measured the p...
