Use of local and global geometry from object arrays by adult humans

Article ID Journal Published Year Pages File Type

Abstract
▶ Men and women did not encode the global geometry of the array to reorient. ▶ Men, but not the women, were able to use local geometric cues to search accurately. ▶ Smaller angles may be processed more readily as local cues than larger angles.
