Two control experiments are described which are concerned with the effect, on judgements of size, of varying the angular separation of the compared objects in the horizontal plane. The first experiment investigates order effects. The second experiment compares judgements of real size at small and large angles of separation. The findings are discussed in relation to parts I and II of these papers.
