Flicker flutter: is an illusory event as good as the real thing?

چکیده
Verghese and Stone (1995) showed that reducing the perceived number of objects by grouping also reduces objective performance. Shams, Kamitani, and Shimojo (2000) showed that a single flash accompanied by multiple beeps appears to flash more than once. We show that objective orientation-discrimination performance depends solely on the perceived number of flashes, independent of the actual number of beeps and flashes. Thus the unit of perceptual analysis seems to be a perceived event, independent of how it is induced.

Thus, an unambiguous visual stimulus appears different when paired with an auditory stimulus. Similarly, with a flashing pattern, we find that beeps can increase or decrease perceived number of flashes. Furthermore, the perceived number or flashes can either improve or...

Fechner reported the discovery of this illusion in an 1838 paper, and his name has been given to these illusory colors.
