 | | Lingelbach B, Ehrenstein W H, 2005, "Adding diagonals to the scintillating grid" Perception 34 ECVP Abstract Supplement |
 | | Recently, Geier et al (2004 Perception 33 Supplement, 53) reported that the Hermann grid illusion disappears with simple sinoid distortion of the grid, an observation that cannot be easily reconciled with an explanation based on concentric receptive fields of retinal ganglion cells as proposed by Baumgartner's model. |
 | | Rather, it favours (additional) cortical mechanisms, as suggested before, Lingelbach et al (1985 Perception 14 Supplement, 7), who showed that the Hermann grid illusion disappears if diagonals are added to the orthogonal grid (for a review see Spillmann, 1994 Perception 23 691 - 708). |
