ABSTRACT

Tunnel effect is a perception of continuous but hidden movement under a screen. The present study confirmed the optimal interval of occlusion to see the effect, when both a moving object and the screen move together. Firstly, four criteria were confirmed to check the tunnel effect in the standard situation where the screen was standing. In experiment 1, a small square (object) and vertically long rectangle (screen) moved in the same direction and passed each other. As a result, if the object moved faster than the screen, the optimal interval of occlusion was not so different from that in the standard one. However, if the screen moved faster than the object, the longer interval was needed. A kind of entraining effect was seen. Also, in experiment 2 where the object and the screen approached and passed each other, the similar tendency was confirmed. Moreover, if they moved with the same speed, the tunnel effect was difficultly seen.
