Abstract
In 2 experiments involving computer-rendered versions of
single shapes or "geons," the extent to which depth rotation
affects the visual discrimination performance of pigeons in both
go/no-go and forced-choice tasks was documented. The pigeons were
able to recognize geons at most rotations in depth; however, the
pigeons' recognition performance was better at the training view
than at most other views. Aspects of these results are both
consistent with and problematic for object-centered and
viewer-centered theories of object recognition.
