Figure 1.

Examples of familiar, novel, and scrambled objects, with one set of stimuli in each row. Each novel object (middle column) contained the same geons as its familiar version (left column) but in different between-geon relations. The scrambled version of each image (right column) was created by permuting blocks of 3 × 3 pixels in the familiar version. All the images were rendered in gray. The paint roller in the first row is an example of an asymmetric object, whereas the lamp in the second row is a symmetric object.
