This builds on pioneering work by researchers like Shiffrar & Freyd, who first showed how biomechanical constraints influence perception. Our study demonstrates these effects against competing unconscious influences.

In two experiments, we compared how people perceive the rotation of human hands vs clock hands. While clock hands were generally perceived as rotating clockwise, human hands were perceived differently based on whether their rotations violated the biomechanics of our bodies.

💡 Key insight: When we unconsciously used masked priming to suggest hand movements in biomechanically impossible directions, participants showed resistance - they still perceived movements aligned with body constraints despite the visual priming!

🧠 JUST PUBLISHED: Our new study in @SciReports reveals how our body knowledge fundamentally shapes how we perceive motion! The influence is robust,even against competing unconscious visual cues 🔗: nature.com/articles/s4159… #MotionPerception #CognitiveScience
