Assessing the Role of the ‘Unity Assumption’ on Multisensory Integration: A Review (2017, background): “…accepting that merely the observer’s conscious belief10 regarding certain stimuli belonging together were able to change the degree of multisensory integration would take us into the issue of cognitive penetrability (e.g., Macpherson, 2012), and ‘the new look’ movement (e.g., Francis, 2012).”
Varieties of cognitive penetration in visual perception. (2014, neutral): “In the philosophy of mind literature, one of the recent key arguments against cognitive impenetrability of early visual processes has been put forward by MacPherson (2012).”
Gaining knowledge mediates changes in perception (without differences in attention): A case for perceptual learning (2015, background): “This finding is today widely regarded as one of the strongest counterexamples to modularity (e.g. Collins & Olson, 2014; Macpherson, 2012; Vetter & Newen, 2014) — no doubt because, in addition to the careful experiments reported in the paper, the difference in lightness is clearly apparent upon look”
Cognitive Penetrability of Perception in the Age of Prediction: Predictive Systems are Penetrable Systems (2015, background): “There is considerable interest in penetrability of perception both in philosophy (e.g., Deroy 2013; Lyons 2011; Macpherson 2012; Siegel 2012; Stokes 2011) and psychology (Firestone and Scholl 2014; Goldstone 1995; Hansen et al. 2006; Levin and Banaji 2006; Lupyan and Spivey 2008; Lupyan et al.…”
