A (side view) schematic depicting the general layout in the surface-slant judgment measurement (discontinuous-texture condition) in Experiment 3. In the virtual environment, the observer stood on the flat, near checkerboard-textured surface to judge if the near and far checkerboard-textured surfaces were coplanar. The slant of the far checkerboard-textured surface was initially set at a random value between +12° (downward) and −12° (upward). The distance of the texture boundary from the observer was 3m, 4m or 5m.
