cross-cultural differences in susceptibility to the vertical–horizontal illusion have been noted in several studies. people living in developed urban cities show greater susceptibility than people living in rural areas. an explanation could be that those in rural areas are more accustomed to living in round houses on f...

a gradual decrease in error of vertical–horizontal illusions
a gradual decrease in error of vertical–horizontal illusions occur as participants age increases from eight to fourteen years. gough and meschieri attribute this decrease in error to the child's improved ability to detect and de-center their attention in a visual display, i.e. position their body differently to gain ot...
