“…Within this framework, an admittedly speculative explanation of the asymmetric influence of height on width might also be formulated. Studies on the perception of the volume of geometric solids demonstrated the so-called elongation bias, which describes the observation that objects with a higher height-to-width ratio are perceived as larger than less elongated objects of the same volume (e.g., Chandon & Ordabayeva, 2009;Frayman & Dawson, 1981;O'Shea, 1981;Piaget & Inhelder, 1966;Raghubir & Krishna, 1999;Wansink & van Ittersum, 2003).…”
