Grasping Visual Illusions: No Evidence for a Dissociation Between Perception and Action

TL;DR: The Ebbinghaus illusion does not provide evidence for the existence of two distinct pathways for perception and action in the visual system, and the differences found previously can be accounted for by a hitherto unknown, nonadditive effect in the illusion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Action does not resist visual illusions.

TL;DR: It is argued that action does not resist visual illusions, and the effects on the motor system seem to be comparable to the effect on the perceptual system, which challenges the action vs. perception hypothesis in its current form.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of visual illusions on grasping

TL;DR: A model is described stating the assumptions that are needed to compare the grasping effects and the perceptual effects of visual illusions and it is shown that these assumptions can be attributed to problems in matching the perceptual task and the grasping task.
Journal ArticleDOI

Grasping visual illusions: Consistent data and no dissociation.

TL;DR: The finding that the Ebbinghaus/Titchener illusion deceives perception but not grasping is usually seen as strong evidence for Goodale and Milner's notion of two parallel visual systems, but it is argued that these results are not as contradictory as it might seem.
Journal ArticleDOI

When is grasping affected by the Müller-Lyer illusion? A quantitative review.

TL;DR: Grasp studies of the Müller-Lyer (ML) illusion suggest that the perceptual and motor effects of the illusion differ only because of online, feedback-driven corrections, and do not appear to support independent spatial representations for vision-for-action and vision- for-perception.
