New evidence for the sensorimotor mismatch theory of weight perception and the size-weight illusion
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Experimental Brain Research"
DOI: 10.1007/s00221-024-06849-0
Abstract: The size-weight illusion is a phenomenon where a smaller object is perceived heavier than an equally weighted larger object. The sensorimotor mismatch theory proposed that this illusion occurs because of a mismatch between efferent motor… read more here.

The interaction between miR165/166 and miR160 regulates Arabidopsis thaliana seed size, weight, and number in a ROS-dependent manner

DOI: 10.1007/s00425-024-04499-8
Abstract: Our data link the miR165/166- and miR160-mediated regulatory modules to ROS and seed formation. Trade-offs of seed size, weight, and number probably require control of the expression of miR165/166 by miR160, modulation of ROS metabolism… read more here.

Does gesture strengthen sensorimotor knowledge of objects? The case of the size-weight illusion
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Psychological Research"
DOI: 10.1007/s00426-018-1128-y
Abstract: Co-speech gestures have been proposed to strengthen sensorimotor knowledge related to objects’ weight and manipulability. This pre-registered study ( https://www.osf.io/9uh6q/ ) was designed to explore how gestures affect memory for sensorimotor information through the application… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41588-025-02170-w
Abstract: Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is an important oilseed and food legume crop, with seed size and weight being critical traits for domestication and breeding. However, genomic rearrangements like structural variations (SVs) underlying seed size and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-52102-y
Abstract: In the size-weight illusion, the smaller object from two equally weighted objects is typically judged as being heavier. One explanation is that the mismatch between the weight expectation based on object size and actual sensory… read more here.

The size-weight illusion and beyond: A new model of perceived weight
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "PLOS Computational Biology"
DOI: 10.1101/2024.09.01.610669
Abstract: In the size-weight illusion (SWI), the smaller of two same-weight, same apparent material objects is perceived as heavier. The SWI has proved difficult to explain via traditional Bayesian models, which predict the opposite effect: expected… read more here.
