Current status of mathematical foundations of the Gestalt concepts in psychophysics.
Article in Journal of vision, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Eileen Kowler was a member of the team of cognitive scientists that was assembled over a half a century ago by Robert M. Steinman. This team had grown and spanned several institutions in this country, as well as in Europe. The mechanisms governing the movements of the eyes were always at the center of Eileen's attention, but her research, as well as the research of our interdisciplinary group, is best understood by realizing its roots in Gestalt psychology. In the first part, this paper describes perspectives of two of the authors from the point of view of Eileen Kowler's collaborators. The second part provides a new look at the origins of Gestalt psychology, pointing out the scientific context of what has been referred to as the Gestalt revolution. The Gestalt revolution closely followed similar revolutions in mathematics and in physics, and it gave rise to new questions and challenges that have received recognition only recently.
