Overview

The rectangles below appear to be composed of random dots. However, if the images are viewed with a stereo viewer, the separate images will fuse and reveal an embedded 3D figure. In this example, fusing the images of these random dot stereograms will reveal a diamond. (Another way for you to fuse the images is to fixate on a point in between them and defocus your eyes. This technique takes practice, but you can try it out with the links below.)

This experiment sought to determine whether giving someone information about the embedded image can help speed up how long it takes to view this image. Seventy-eight participants were given no information, verbal information, and/or visual information (a drawing of the object) about what the embedded image should look like before attempting to fuse the images and actually view the 3D design.

I  need to report on an analysis plan: a) state my hypothesis; b) describe the statistical technique I will use to test my hypothesis. ( I couldn't add the random dots - but they can be found here - http://onlinestatbook.com/2/case_studies/stereograms.html
