“…Le et al (2015) removed excess energy from trypophobic images (giving them 1/f natural image spectra but kept the original phase spectra intact) and showed that trypophobic comfort was unaffected compared to the original images (even among trypophobic individuals). Shirai and Ogawa (2019) found that trypophobic images enter visual awareness sooner than fear-related and neutral images, but scrambled phase spectra of the same trypophobic images (leaving the original amplitude spectrum intact) mitigated the "pre-perceptual" processing effect. However, during "post-perceptual" processing, phase-scrambled images were rated more negatively than other image types.…”

“…Le et al (2015) filtered trypophobic images to have a 1/f natural image spectra, thus removing the excess mid-range energy, and found that those images continued to invoke visual discomfort. Using a continuous flash suppression technique to measure access to early visual awareness, Shirai & Ogawa (2019) recently showed that trypophobic images enter visual awareness earlier than fearful or neutral images, but a second experiment in which these images were phasescrambled (but the original amplitude spectrum was left intact) mitigated the early awareness effect. These recent findings suggest that the energy spectra of trypophobic images may not be solely responsible for evoking visual discomfort.…”

“…Another study revealed that low-and mid-spatial frequency information contributed to trypophobia (Sasaki et al, 2017). Based on these findings, trypophobic objects may be processed rapidly and unconsciously; indeed, there is empirical evidence supporting this (Sasaki, Watanabe & Yamada, 2018;Shirai & Ogawa, 2019). Taken together, early visual processing plays key roles in trypophobia.…”
