Perception of the corridor illusion by baboons (Papio papio)

The corridor illusion was assessed in four baboons (Papio papio) by way of judgmental task implying a comparison between the size of two figures presented on various backgrounds. Findings demonstrate that the baboons are sensitive to the corridor illusion.
