Previous research has suggested that aftereffect of induced rotation can be longer when the number of pattern elements in the inducing stimulus is greater. This was explained by the amount of shearing between pattern elements of inducing and static stimuli. However, the results might also be explained by the greater area occupied by a greater number of pattern elements. The present experiment used three inducing stimuli, in which number of pattern elements and area of pattern were varied independently, to test between these hypotheses. The former was corroborated and the latter refuted.
先前的研究表明，当诱导刺激中图案元素的数量较多时，诱导旋转的后效可能会更长。这是通过诱导刺激和静态刺激的图案元素之间的剪切量来解释的。然而，结果也可能由更多数量的图案元素占据的更大面积来解释。本实验使用了三种诱导刺激，其中图案元素的数量和图案面积是独立变化的，以检验这些假设。前者得到了证实，后者被推翻。
