| summary | Considerable debate surrounds the extent and manner that motor control is, like perception, susceptible to visual illusions. Using the Brentano version of the Müller-Lyer illusion, we measured the accuracy of voluntary (anti-saccadic eye movements and ballistic arm movements) and reflexive (pro-saccadic eye movements) actions to the endpoints of equal length line segments that appeared different (Exps. 1 & 3) and different length line segments that appeared equal (Exps. 2 & 4). From this data, I will argue that the representations underlying perception and action interact and influence even the most reflexive movements with a stronger influence for movements that are consciously controlled. |
