Introduction

Task: Detect movement of onesphere (Fig. 3 & 4). Result: Re-markably poor performance [1],especially when task-irrelevantconnecting lines (dipoles)change (Fig. 1).

Is this caused by• image change?•grouping change?

Conclusions

•Replication of the original effect of lower performance on tri-als where connecting lines between objects switched position(“switching dipoles”).

• Image change alone does not cause disruption similar to theswitching dipoles effect.

•The same is true for grouping change.•Findings for colour grouping in 3D scenes are compatible with the

2D literature [2, 3].
