“…Visual size illusions have been found to be correlated with the functional and structural features of the primary visual cortex ( V1). Specifically, the spatial extent of V1 activity reflects the perceived size rather than the physical size of an object (Pooresmaeili, Arrighi, Biagi, & Morrone, 2013;Fang, Boyaci, Kersten, & Murray, 2008;Murray, Boyaci, & Kersten, 2006). Similar V1 activation patterns have been observed for an afterimage whose apparent size varies with distance (Sperandio, Chouinard, & Goodale, 2012).…”
