Journal ArticleDOI
How baseball outfielders determine where to run to catch fly balls
TL;DR: This study supports the idea that outfielders convert the temporal problem to a spatial one by selecting a running path that maintains a linear optical trajectory (LOT) for the ball.
Journal ArticleDOI
How Dogs Navigate to Catch Frisbees
TL;DR: Using micro-video cameras attached to the heads of 2 dogs, it is confirmed that dogs use the same viewer-based navigational heuristics previously found with baseball players, and a common interception strategy that extends both across species and to complex target trajectories.
Journal ArticleDOI
Right-handers and Americans favor turning to the right.
TL;DR: The findings support that walking direction preference is an additive function of both learned driving patterns and genetic handedness, and have practical implications for the design of public spaces such as schools, businesses, and urban centers.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Doppler Illusion: The Influence of Dynamic Intensity Change on Perceived Pitch
TL;DR: Four studies illustrate a new auditory illusion associated with the Doppler effect and demonstrate a new influence of dynamic intensity change on perceived pitch, which supports a dynamic dimensional interaction of pitch and loudness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lateral motion bias associated with reading direction.
TL;DR: The found that when Americans view ambiguous lateral long-range apparent motion, they exhibit a robust bias to experience leftward movement, and the bilingual sample produced a significant correlation between exposure to English and extent of leftward motion bias.
