I have tried looking this up on the net without success.
This is a (I think) classic psychology experiment in which subjects are asked to describe the movement of a small black stationary dot painted on a white wall. Some perceive the dot as stationary and others perceive that the dot moves around. I don't recall what suggestions are give to the subjects, if any.
Can anyone provide a cite for this experiment? I think it's from the '50s.
Thanks.
