Influences of Occlusion, Color, and Luminance on the Perception of Fragmented Pictures

The contribution of the magnocellular (M) pathway to perceptual completion and depth processing was examined by comparing performance under black-and-white conditions with isoluminant color and diffuse red background conditions expected to suppress M pathway activity. Participants identified the repeated figure in pictures where only fragments of the figures were visible. The fragments were presented either alone (unoccluded) or with an occluder (occluded) filling the space between them. Identification with an occluder involved amodally completing the fragments behind it, i.e., depth processing. All unoccluded versions were easy to identify indicating perceptual completion of the fragments was not influenced by suppressing M pathway activity. Black-and-white occluded versions were also easy to identify. The significantly longer identification times for occluded versions under isoluminant and diffuse red background conditions indicates amodal completion of the fragments was hindered when M pathway activity was reduced, supporting the importance of M pathway activity for depth processing.
