title: Organizational determinants of subjective contour: the subjective Necker cube.
abstract: With specially arranged inducing elements on a white surface of uniform luminosity, a phenomenally complete Necker cube can be seen in any array where only the 'corners' of the cube are physically represented. The subjectively seen bars of the cube disappear when the inducing 'discs' are seen as 'holes' in an interposing surface, through which the corners of a partially occluded cube are viewed. Illusory brightness effects are also observed in connection with the different organizations of this ambiguous figure.
