Corrigendum

Shortly after our article was published, we learned about several other publications describing subjective reports of the phenomenon we studied (i.e., seeing your own hand movements in complete darkness). This phenomenon has been described as phantom visual imagery by Hofstetter (1970) and as kinetic visual imagery by Brosgole and his colleagues (Brosgole & Neylon, 1973; Brosgole & Roig, 1983). We regret being unaware of those previous studies but take satisfaction in having provided objective evidence that seeing hand motion in the dark is genuinely perceptual in nature and attributable to known mechanisms of brain functioning. For the record, there are also anecdotes from cave explorers (e.g., the “spelunker illusion”; Schwitzgebel, 2011; see also Schwitzgebel, 2010) that likely describe the same illusion.
