Abstract
The assimilation theory of geometric illusions was employed to explain the reversed ingoing form of the Müller–Lyer illusion. The mathematical formula which was used previously to predict changes in the Ponzo and Poggendorff illusions was employed in simulated experiments on the reversed Müller–Lyer illusion. It correctly predicted the form of the function, relating illusion to size of gap, that was found previously by Fellows (1967). In addition it correctly predicted the effects of increasing the length of the fins on the form of the function. Finally a reversed outgoing Müller–Lyer illusion was found when the outgoing fins were moved towards the center of the shaft.
