Studies by McEwen & Rodger and by Spitz & Lipman have not confirmed Wertheimer's earlier finding of consistent individual differences in visual and kinaesthetic after‐effects. Further results indicating lack of correlation between visual and kinaesthetic after‐effects are presented, with results suggesting low reliability of kinaesthetic after‐effects over time, significant effects of starting positions on judgements, and non‐significant relations between after‐effects and the number of reversals experienced with three reversible figures.
