-2 doi abstract bibtex Before methods for drawing accurately in perspective were developed in the 15th century, many artists drew with divergent perspective. But we found that many university students draw with divergent perspective rather than with the correct convergent perspective. These experiments were designed to reveal why people tend to draw with divergent perspective. University students drew a cube and isolated edges and surfaces of a cube. Their drawings were very inaccurate. About half the students drew with divergent perspective like artists before the 15th century. Students selected a cube from a set of tapered boxes with great accuracy and were reasonably accurate in selecting the correct drawing of a cube from a set of tapered drawings. Each subject's drawing was much worse than the drawing selected as accurate. An analysis of errors in drawings of a cube and of isolated edges and surfaces of a cube revealed several factors that predispose people to draw in divergent perspective. The way these factors intrude depends on the order in which the edges of the cube are drawn.
