Peripersonal versus extrapersonal visual scene information for egocentric direction and position perception.

When perceiving the visual environment, people simultaneously perceive their own direction and position in the environment (i.e., egocentric spatial perception). This study investigated what visual information in a scene is necessary for egocentric spatial perceptions. In two perception tasks (the e...

      ab: When perceiving the visual environment, people simultaneously perceive their own direction and position in the environment (i.e., egocentric spatial perception). This study investigated what visual information in a scene is necessary for egocentric spatial perceptions. In two perception tasks (the egocentric direction and position perception tasks), observers viewed two static road images presented sequentially. In Experiment 1, the critical manipulation involved an occluded region in the road image, an extrapersonal region (far-occlusion) and a peripersonal region (near-occlusion). Egocentric direction perception was worse in the far-occlusion condition than in the no-occlusion condition, and egocentric position perceptions were worse in the far- and near-occlusion conditions than in the no-occlusion condition. In Experiment 2, we conducted the same tasks manipulating the observers’ gaze location in a scene—an extrapersonal region (far-gaze), a peripersonal region (near-gaze) and the intermediate region between the former two (middle-gaze). Egocentric direction perception performance was the best in the far-gaze condition, and egocentric position perception performances were not different among gaze location conditions. These results suggest that egocentric direction perception is based on fine visual information about the extrapersonal region in a road landscape, and egocentric position perception is based on information about the entire visual scene.
