| Research Abstract |
A major purpose of this study is to examine experimentally some issues of picture perception. In first part of this study, the effectiveness of texture gradient, which is one of pictorial cues, was investigated. The results of experiments showed that texture gradient was effective to the perception of relative height. This new finding was published in Perception. In final part of this study, the relationship between picture perception and shape constancy was examined. The results of experiments suggest that the mechanism of shape constancy was unsuitable to picture perception.
