Perception Research Results
Explore data across five domains of perception. Discover how humans differ in their construction of reality.
Visual Perception
Our visual tests reveal dramatic differences in how people resolve ambiguous images. 41.73% see a duck first in the duck-rabbit illusion, while 37.28% see a rabbit.
Auditory Perception
68.37% of participants perceive the Shepard tone as continuously rising, while only 3.67% perceive it as static. Musicians show 27.3% higher accuracy in identifying the illusion.
Emotional Perception
Only 23.64% of participants show high accuracy in detecting subtle emotional expressions. Women score 18.3% higher on average than men in emotional recognition tasks.
Unusual Perceptual Phenomena
Synesthetic Responses
A small but significant percentage of participants reported cross-modal sensory experiences, such as 'hearing' colors or 'seeing' sounds.
Perception Switching
Some participants demonstrated an unusual ability to voluntarily switch between perceptual interpretations at will.
