Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) We can perceive human movement from a little number of point-lights (biological motion). Previous studies showed that the biological motion perception requires the global integration, and also suggest that the attention affects the integration. In this study, we investigated the perception of biological motion defined by binocular disparity (front or back). The results showed that biological motion perception is possible only when it is defined by front binocular disparity. This suggests that biological motion perception requires that the dots of biological motion is perceived as front figures.
