The present study investigated the effects of interocular suppression on the pupillary constriction to luminance and color changes. Stable interocular suppression was produced by presenting a flickering high-contrast grating to one eye and a spati...
Boundary extension (BE) refers to the phenomenon whereby a close-up photograph of a scene is remembered as if it extended beyond the boundaries of the photograph. The present study investigated the relationship between how close-up a stimulus imag...
The articulation effect refers to a change in lightness contrast induced by adding small patches of different luminances to a uniform background surrounding a target in a lightness contrast display. This study investigated how local luminance sign...
Lightness of a grey target on a uniform light (or dark) surround changes by articulating the surround (articulation effect). To elucidate the processing of lightness underlying the articulation effect, the present study introduced transparency ove...

In number processing, semantic representations are efficiently activated. These representations frequently affect task performance, as demonstrated by semantic effects such as the distance effect (longer reaction times to closer numerical pairs in...
By adding small patches of different luminances to a uniform field surrounding a target, the effect of the surrounding luminance on target brightness can be enhanced (articulation effect). The present study investigated whether the articulation ef...
