The claim that this study controlled for shape is incorrect. The contour elements making up the "patterned rectangles" referred to in the abstract did have a shape, and this shape was perfectly confounded with the factor of "entropy." The elements in the "low entropy" figures had squared-off, rectangular, edges, while the elements in the "high-entropy" figures had non-rectangular, slanted edges. Inferring an occlusion allows their shape to be regularised.
