Distortions in memory for maps

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present evidence for systematic errors in memory for real and artificial maps, local environments, and visual forms, attributed to two heuristics that are derived from principles of perceptual organization.

A theory of visual stability across saccadic eye movements

TL;DR: From a review of the physiological and psychological evidence, it is concluded that no subtraction, compensation, or evaluation need take place and the problem for which these solutions were developed turns out to be a false one.

The how and why of what went where in apparent motion: Modeling solutions to the motion correspondence problem.

TL;DR: A model that is capable of maintaining the identities of individuated elements as they move is described, and it solves a particular problem of underdetermination, the motion correspondence problem, by simultaneously applying 3 constraints: the nearest neighbor principle, the relative velocity principle, and the element integrity principle.

General contrast effects in speech perception: Effect of preceding liquid on stop consonant identification

TL;DR: The results of the present study suggest an explanation in terms of general auditory processes as opposed to recovery of or knowledge of specific articulatory dynamics.

The Psychology of Perceptual Organization: A Transformational Approach

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a theoretical framework for perceptual organization, focusing on the organizational phenomena of shape constancy, motion perception, figural goodness, perceptual grouping, and reference frame effects and argue that the key to understanding them within a unified framework lies in the concept of local invariance over the group of Euclidean similarity transformations.
