C ohen , R. L. An investigation of velocity synthesis. Scand. J. Psychol ., 1962, 3 , 97–111.—A short series of experiments has shown that it is possible to divide up the distribution of scores obtained from a group of subjects performing on the velocity synthesis apparatus mainly on the basis of (1) instructions and (2) eye behaviour. It was further found that the difference in scores dependent on differences in eye behaviour could be traced to the effect of the Aubert‐Fleischl Paradox. An alternative to the gestalt model was suggested, viz. a signal/interference model.
