Extract

A number of recent studies of apparent movement have been designed with Kohler and Wallach's satiation theory or some similar theory of cortical processes as their basis. The work has been reviewed in some detail (4) and we shall concern ourselves here only with those studies that are both less equivocal and directly relevant to the present study.
