“…For instance, Muller-Lyer illusion has been found to be stronger in the left visual hemifield (Clem & Pollack, 1975). Conversely, Saneyoshi (2018) found greater size overestimation effect with Ebbinghaus inducers on the right visual field. Also size discrimination has been found to be more accurate in the left visual field, implying that the perceived size is more resistant to illusory effects in the left visual field (Corballis, Funnell, & Gazzaniga, 2002).…”

It is well known that prolonged exposure to a certain size stimulus alters the perceived size of a subsequently presented stimulus at the same location.How the rest of the visual space is affected by this size adaptation, however, has not been systematically studied before. Here, to fill this gap in literature, we tested size adaptation at the adapter location as well as the rest of the visual space. We used peripherally presented solid discs (Experiment 1) and rings (Experiment 2) as adapter and target (test) stimuli. Observers adapted to a mid-sized stimulus and judged the size of the subsequently presented smaller or larger target stimuli. Results showed that the perceived sizes of target stimuli were repelled away from the adapter size, not only at the adapter location but also at distant locations. These findings demonstrate that size adaptation causes widespread distortion of the visual space and alters perceived size. We discuss possible computational models that may underpin the perceptual effect.

“…Combining the four conditions and nine sizes resulted in 36 object pairs. As the screen side might have an effect on the illusion strength [ 22 ], each object in these pairs could be displayed at the left or the right side of the screen. These two variants were each presented five times, resulting in a total of 360 trials.…”

Familiarity with an Object’s Size Influences the Perceived Size of Its Image

It is known that judgments about objects’ distances are influenced by familiar size: a soccer ball looks farther away than a tennis ball if their images are equally large on the retina. We here investigate whether familiar size also influences judgments about the size of images of objects that are presented side-by-side on a computer screen. Sixty-three participants indicated which of two images appeared larger on the screen in a 2-alternative forced-choice discrimination task. The objects were either two different types of balls, two different types of coins, or a ball and a grey disk. We found that the type of ball biased the comparison between their image sizes: the size of the image of the soccer ball was over-estimated by about 5% (assimilation). The bias in the comparison between the two balls was equal to the sum of the biases in the comparisons with the grey disk. The bias for the coins was smaller and in the opposite direction (contrast). The average precision of the size comparison was 3.5%, irrespective of the type of object. We conclude that knowing a depicted object’s real size can influence the perceived size of its image, but the perceived size is not always attracted towards the familiar size.
