Effects of active movement on body-part size estimates.

摘要: Body-part size estimates of 20 male Ss were obtained under normal room illumination and three basic conditions: active movement a joint-bounded body part prior to making an estimate that part, different non-joint-bounded parts as well familiar non-body objects, no objects. The results did not support the hypotheses induced muscular tension or increased attention estimating task creates enhancing effect upon judgments from pictorial memory stimuli. Other findings, such overestimation head width variability in estimation waist, consistent with previous studies.
