Conversations with Caves
The influence of pareidolia has often been anecdotally observed in examples of Upper Palaeolithic cave art, where topographic features of cave walls were incorporated into images. As part of a wider investigation into the visual psychology of the earliest known art, we explored three hypotheses relating to pareidolia in cases of Late Upper Palaeolithic art in Las Monedas and La Pasiega Caves (Cantabria, Spain). Deploying current research methods …
An Upper Palaeolithic Proto-writing System and Phenological Calendar
In at least 400 European caves such as Lascaux, Chauvet and Altamira, Upper PalaeolithicHomo sapiensgroups drew, painted and engraved non-figurative signs from at least ~42,000bpand figurative images (notably animals) from at least 37,000bp. Since their discovery ~150 years ago, the purpose or meaning of European Upper Palaeolithic non-figurative signs has eluded researchers. Despite this, specialists assume that they were notational in some way.…
My body until proven otherwise
The visual psychology of European Upper Palaeolithic figurative art
How have our visual brains evolved, and exactly how did this constrain the specific way that animals were depicted in Upper Palaeolithic art? Here, we test predictions derived from visual neuroscience in this field. Using the example of open-air Upper Palaeolithic rock art of Portugal’s Côa Valley, we point out the frequently recurring outline strategies that past artists utilized to depict the prey animals upon which they were dependent for surv…
Bringing science to the study of ancient senses - archaeology and visual psychology
One cannot overemphasize the centrality of the visual brain to human evolution, perception, behaviour, identity and culture. We are visually-centric beings: it is estimated that more than half of o
Laterality and (in)visibility in emotional face perception
It is widely agreed that hemispheric asymmetries in emotional face perception exist. However, the mechanisms underlying this lateralization are not fully understood. In the present study, we tested whether (a) these asymmetries are driven by the low spatial frequency content of images depicting facial expressions, and (b) whether the effects differed depending on whether the emotional facial expressions were clearly visible or hidden (i.e., embed…
Opportunities and challenges for a maturing science of consciousness
Change Blindness
Type-2 blindsight
Exogenous attention to unseen objects
What is it like to have type-2 blindsight? Drawing inferences from residual function in type-1 blindsight
Cortical Color Blindness is Not “Blindsight for Color”
Evidence for longevity differences between left handed and right handed men
STUDY OBJECTIVE--The aim was to examine the relationship between handedness and longevity. DESIGN--This was an archival (retrospective) survey of a cohort of adult men who had played 'first-class cricket'. SETTING--The United Kingdom PARTICIPANTS--The subjects consisted of all of the deceased players included in an encyclopedia of 'first-class cricket' whose bowling hand had been recorded (n = 3165). The study also considered a further 2314 playe…
