What is "where":
Physical reasoning informs object location
This webpage contains demonstrations supporting our paper:
What is "where": Physical reasoning informs object location.
Open Mind, 7, 130-140.
Below, you will find links to the experiments we performed.
For readers, we made an additional experimental 'game', in which you can click on an image (like the main task) and then see how our subjects clicked on it. You can access this page here.
- Experiment 1: line drawings, main condition ("where") (secondary conditions used for modeling: "center of mass", "spatial memory", and "click anywhere")
- Experiment 2: real objects, main condition ("where") (secondary conditions used for modeling: "center of mass", "spatial memory", and "click anywhere")
- Experiment 3: masked objects, main condition ("where") (secondary conditions used for modeling: "center of mass", "spatial_memory", and "click anywhere")
(As an additional exploratory model, we tested a "grasping" model using another task in all three experiments. Here is the grasping task for experiment 1, experiment 2, and experiment 3)
