婴儿已被证明能够感知卡尼萨人物中虚幻的轮廓。这项研究测试了他们是否也将这些虚幻的图形视为具有真实物体的属性，例如深度和遮挡其他物体的能力。八个月和五个月大的婴儿看到的场景包括卡尼萨广场和移动鸭子的删除和增加模式提供的进一步深度线索。当两种遮挡线索不一致时，8 个月大的婴儿在场景中观察的时间明显长于它们彼此一致时，这提供了他们将 Kanizsa 正方形解释为深度线索的证据。相比之下，5 个月大的孩子没有表现出这种差异。这一发现表明，8 个月大的孩子将虚幻轮廓形成的图形视为具有真实物体的属性，可以充当遮挡物。
Infants have been demonstrated to be able to perceive illusory contours in Kanizsa figures. This study tested whether they also perceive these illusory figures as having the properties of real objects, such as depth and capability of occluding other objects. Eight- and five-month-old infants were presented with scenes that included a Kanizsa square and further depth cues provided by the deletion and accretion pattern of a moving duck. The 8-month-old infants looked significantly longer at the scene when the two types of occlusion cues were inconsistent than when they were consistent with each other, which provides evidence that they interpreted the Kanizsa square as a depth cue. In contrast, 5-month-olds did not show this difference. This finding demonstrates that 8-month-olds perceive the figure formed by the illusory contours as having properties of a real object that can act as an occluder.
