Modification of Stereoscopic Depth-Perception
Hans Wallach, Mary Evelyn Moore, Linda M. Davidson · The American Journal of Psychology · 1963
This is the first in a series of studies which explore artificial conditions that yield rapid perceptual learning and the nature of the effects obtained in learning. The following strategy for discovering conditions for rapid perceptual learning was employed: We selected two cues of different types which pertained to one and the same perceptual property, such as distance or depth; by means of an optical or mechanical arrangement one of the cues was so altered that the objective situation was misrepresented; and then O was exposed simultaneously to the two cues, which were now contradictory.
