Perception 2019, Vol. 48(S1) 1–233 ! The Author(s) 2019 41st European Conference on Article reuse guidelines: sagepub.com/journals-permissions Visual Perception (ECVP) DOI: 10.1177/0301006618824879 2018 Trieste journals.sagepub.com/home/pec Welcome Address The 41st European Conference on Visual Perception (ECVP) took place in Trieste (Italy), from August 26 to 30, 2018. This edition was dedicated to the memory of our esteemed colleague and friend Tom Troscianko, with an emotional Memorial lecture in his honour held by Peter Thompson during the opening ceremony. The conference saw the participation of over 900 fellow vision scientists coming from all around the world; the vast majority of them actively participated, allowing us to offer an outstanding scientific program. In particular, we hosted almost 300 oral presentations in 21 symposia and 21 talk sessions, and more than 500 posters during the innovative ‘Poster day’. Among symposia, there were two special ones: the European Symposium on Perception and Action in Sport (ESPAS), gathering the most influential researchers in the field, and Perceptual Structures – A Festschrift for Michael Kubovy, celebrating his retirement. As concerns keynotes, the Perception lecture was held by Dejan Todorovic, while the Rank Prize lecture was held by Branka Spehar; moreover, in the program we also included the Kanizsa lecture, held by Walter Gerbino. Finally, we respected the tradition of the Illusion night, this year entitled “Un mare di illusioni” as it took place by the sea. To conclude, we sincerely thank all the volunteers, whose contribution was fundamental for the success of the conference.

  • Listening to Dance...With Our Bodies and Minds Jordan
    Interdisciplinary Panel 4: Looking and listening Listening to dance...with our bodies and minds Stephanie Jordan, Research Professor in Dance, Director of Centre for Dance Research, Roehampton University Through our bodies, we empathise not only with dance, but also with its accompanying music. So, what happens when we experience dance and music together, or ‘choreomusically’? Evidence now suggests that audio, visual and motor imagery share a common representational and neuropsychological base, even though music can be subversive as much as supportive in the partnership with dance. In this regard, might it be useful to explore the interface between perception and empathy in our discussion of dance and music? In experiencing dance and music together, is the response one of integration or of two (or even more) separate ‘voices’ or ‘bodies’, each of which invites empathetic response or ‘virtual motion’? My paper raises questions about how we respond to choreomusical structures, drawing from my experience of integrating ideas from cognitive science into dance analysis (independently and in experimental workshops). My research, though primarily from the point of view of perception, raises key questions about empathetic responses to, or embodiment of, the two simultaneously-presented media. Although a number of valuable crossmodal studies deal with basic temporal and spatial concepts, there are few to date that have foregrounded relations (or structural meetings) between the more complex and extended stimuli of actual dance and music. In the two seminal experiments (Krumhansl and Schenk (1997); Mitchell and Gallaher (2001)), empirical evidence demonstrated that dance can reflect musical formal divisions, pitch level, dynamics and emotions.

SPATIAL CODING 2 ABSTRACT Typical boundaries (e.g. large walls) strongly influence neural activity related to navigation and representations of spatial layouts. Typical boundaries are also a major aid to reliable navigation in young children and non-human animals. One hypothesis places this as a function of the walls being boundaries, defined by proponents as obstacles to navigation. An alternative hypothesis suggests that this is a function of visual covariates such as the presence of large 3D surfaces. Using immersive virtual reality, we dissociated whether walls in the environment were true boundaries (i.e., obstacles to navigation) or not (i.e., visually identical but not obstacles to navigation), or if they were replaced with smaller objects. 20 adults recalled locations of objects in virtual environments under four conditions: plywood, where a visual wall coincided with a large touchable piece of plywood; pass through, where the wall coincided with empty space and participants could pass through it; pass over, where the wall was underneath a transparent floor, and cones, where there were traffic cones instead of walls.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.1525/collabra.169 ORIGINAL RESEARCH REPORT Do Reward-Related Distractors Impair Cognitive Performance? Perhaps Not Dorottya Rusz*, Erik Bijleveld† and Michiel A. J. Kompier† Over a hundred prior studies show that reward-related distractors capture attention. It is less clear, however, whether and when reward-related distractors affect performance on tasks that require cognitive control. In this experiment, we examined whether reward-related distractors impair performance during a demanding arithmetic task. Participants (N = 81) solved math problems, while they were exposed to task-irrelevant stimuli that were previously associated with monetary rewards (vs. not). Although we found some evidence for reward learning in the training phase, results from the test phase showed no evidence that reward-related distractors harm cognitive performance. This null effect was invariant across different versions of our task. We examined the results further with Bayesian analyses, which showed positive evidence for the null. Altogether, the present study showed that reward-related distractors did not harm performance on a mental arithmetic task. When considered together with previous studies, the present study suggests that the negative impact of reward-related distractors on cognitive control is not as straightforward as it may seem, and that more research is needed to clarify the circumstances under which reward-related distractors harm cognitive control.
