The physical properties of these figures remain constant, yet two distinct interpretations are possible; these reverse (switch) from one percept to the other. The consensus is that r...

The development of automatic and controlled inhibitory retrieval processes in true and false recall (2011)
Journal Article
Knott, L. M., Howe, M. L., Wimmer, M. C., & Dewhurst, S. A. (2011). The development of automatic and controlled inhibitory retrieval processes in true and false recall. Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 109(1), 91-108. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jecp.2011.01.001
