Intuitive physical reasoning about objects' masses transfers to a visuomotor decision task consistent with Newtonian physics.

While interacting with objects during every-day activities, e.g. when sliding a glass on a counter top, people obtain constant feedback whether they are acting in accordance with physical laws. However, classical research on intuitive physics has revealed that people's judgements systematically...
