Action does not resist visual illusions

Recent TICS articles(1,2) discussed the psychophysical evidence in favor of Goodale and Milner's action vs. perception hypothesis(3). Carey argued tha t most of the studies investigating the effects of visual illusions on gras ping can be reconciled with the notion that the action system resists visua l illusions(1). Bruno suggested a new interpretation of the action vs. perc eption hypothesis in order to incorporate most of the empirical findings(2) . Here, I argue that action does not resist visual illusions. Even more, th e effects on the motor system seem to be comparable to the effects on the p erceptual system. This challenges the action vs. perception hypothesis in i ts current form.
