[2] Goldreich (2007) [6] linked the tau and kappa effects to the same underlying expectation regarding movement speed.
Here, a small image, e.g., a horizontal grating, is presented to the left eye, and another image, e.g., a vertical grating, is shown to the corresponding location in the right eye.
