Reference Titles

edit

The last two articles have the same title. The last one should be "The Viewing-from-Above Bias and the Silhouette Illusion" if you follow the link. I have not edited because not certain this was indeed meant to be the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.38.249.160 (talk) 07:24, 5 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Left to right is natural?

edit

"Another reason behind this may be due to the brain's natural preference of viewing things from left to right"

I skimmed through the referenced article, and I don't see that it says anything about a "natural preference" for left to right. The article does talk about handedness, which isn't the same thing. Another possibility to consider is reading direction; literature should be reviewed for Necker cube experiments with people who natively read right to left or top to bottom, along with 90°/270° rotations of the cube.

I discovered the comment archive,which already has a discussion on this. I am removing the sentence. Not sure what to do with the reference; I'll leave it attached to the previous sentence. Scott McNay (talk) 17:01, 19 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Both aspects

edit

It's possible to see both aspects and to see the spinning dancer spin both ways (the way I saw it originally, which confused me quite a bit; although the standard common seems to have a flaw that makes one rotation direction physiologically absurd). The article doesn't indicate that this is a piece of embellishment in Blindsight, or if humans are actually not supposed to be able to do that. John Moser (talk) 05:39, 7 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

The unsourced trivia removed here, was originally added by someone 18:37, 16 June 2021‎ Maybe if patrollers of recent changes noticed the rubbish when it was first inserted, rather than jumping onto the always-suspect edits from random poor sap IP users innocently thinking, "Oh, that's a little fix that could do with some attention", WP would retain more editors: RWTP?
