Figure 4

Figural/depth rating as a function of edge-texture orientation similarity in terms of the number of orientations in common between the edge and texture elements and the orientation of the elements on the grouped side. Positive ratings indicate results consistent with the ERG hypothesis. Example displays are shown for conditions in which (A) the grouped side has one orientation in common with the line edge and the edge contains horizontal and vertical segments and (B) the grouped side has two orientations in common with the line edge and the edge contains diagonal segments. The left side regions in the two examples are predicted to be figural by the ERG hypothesis. Error bars represent standard errors of the mean.
