“…Their explanation for this effect was that when the hole appeared larger (i.e., when surrounded by the annulus of small circles), the golfer's confidence in their ability to make the putt was raised, leading to enhanced subsequent performance. This finding provides an interesting extension on the classic debate surrounding the apparent independence of perception and action (see Carey, 2001), suggesting that cognitive factors might mediate perceptual-motor interactions.…”

“…Although we currently cannot draw general conclusions about the action hypothesis, our results exhibit a pattern consistent with those of prior research, which shows that active perceptual judgment tasks are less susceptible to illusions than are tasks that are passive and are typically thought of as purely perceptual (e.g., Carey, 2001;Post & Welch, 1996). Such findings are not surprising in light of the fact that humans evolved as active, mobile creatures and employ a variety of navigation (Gibson, 1966(Gibson, , 1979 and interception (Sugar, McBeath, & Wang, 2006) strategies.…”

“…Consequently, we hypothesized that judgment error would be predicted by symmetric shapes' axial deviation from trajectory (AAM bias hypothesis). Our secondary hypothesis was motivated by prior research that showed that perceptual biases and illusions frequently disappear when experimental task parameters are changed so that participants perform an active rather than a passive judgment (Carey, 2001;Milner & Goodale, 1992, 1993Post & Welch, 1996). We hypothesized that increased action system engagement would improve performance (action hypothesis).…”

“…Moreover, this general story is one that enjoys widespread cognitive scientific support (see for example Zeki (1993) Jeannerod (1997, Gazzaniga (1998) , Decety and Grezes (1999), Carey (2001) and many more). The story also has some intuitive appeal, once we reflect of expert sports performance, driving skills etc.…”
