As a white hourglass moves across a black background, the middle appears to lag behind its true position, resulting in the apparent bending of the axis of the hourglass. No such distortion occurs with a black hourglass moving across a white background. The results of two experiments support a visual persistence hypothesis, as opposed to a latency hypothesis.
