“…We take this as evidence that these proportions are not specific to one procedure; instead, they reflect the fact that for many of the participants, Vince did not need to be in front of a mirror to see himself. This may be surprising but is entirely consistent with the documented early error in the literature (Bertamini, Latto, & Spooner, 2003;Croucher et al, 2002). For instance, in Croucher et al, there were three groups of responses that appeared across all of the experiments: Few people thought that a person can see herself in a mirror as soon as the mirror is visible to her; 40%-50% correctly expected that the person had to reach the near edge of the mirror, and 30%-50% placed their responses too (n 35) saw the vertical stimuli, and the other (n 31) saw the horizontal stimuli.…”
