Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Non-Visual Perception of the Length of Lifted Rods
In spite of these curves, however, we believe that it would be a mistake summarily to dismiss the moment Of weight as bearing no relation to length non-visually perceived. In Fig. 14, with weight and length varying, and in Fig. 17, with weight alone receiving an increment and a decrement, we have curves showing a tendency toward correlation between Objective weight and perception Of length; the lighter rods come to the O's as short, ' the heavy as 'long.' The tendency is especially striking for H in both series and for L with the heaviest rod in series B IV.'
