MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION
30 sec • 1 pt
the minimum stimulation needed to detect a particular stimulus 50 percent of the time.
Amplitude
Binocular cues
Absolute threshold
Difference threshold (Just noticeable difference)
2.
MATCH QUESTION

Texture gradient
when one sort of sensation (such as hearing a sound) produces another (such as seeing color)
Transduction
monocular cue for depth perception; a gradual change from course, distinct texture to fine, indistinct texture signals increasing distance
Top-down processing
conversion of one form of energy into another. In sensation, the transforming of stimulus energies into neural impulses
Subliminal sensation
information processing guided by higher-level mental process, as when we construct perceptions drawing out our experience and expectation.
Synaesthesia
detection of stimuli below absolute threshold

Signal detection theory
a theory predicting how and when we detect the presence of a faint stimuli ("signal") amid background stimulation ("noise").
Sensation
the process by which our receptors receive and represent stimulus energies from our environment.
Similarity
Specialized structures that detect specific types of environmental stimuli and transduce them into neural signals
Sensory receptors
diminished sensitivity as a consequence of constant stimulation.
Sensory adaptation
Gestalt grouping principle; we group similar figures together

Selective attention
monocular cue for depth perception; if we assume two objects are similar in size, most people perceive the one that casts the smaller retinal image to be farther away
Relative height
monocular cue for depth perception; as we move, stationary objects seem to "move" as well. Objects above a fixation point move "with" us, objects below the fixation point move "past" us.
Relative motion
a binocular cue for perceiving depth; by comparing the images of the retinas of the two eyes, the brain computes distance. The greater the disparity (difference) between the two images, the closer the object
Relative size
ability to attend to only a limited amount of sensory information at one time
Retinal disparity
monocular cue for depth perception; we perceive objects higher in our visual field to be farther away. Explanation for why the "bottom" of a figure-ground illusion usually is interpreted as the "figure"

MATCH QUESTION
1 min • 1 pt
Match the following
Psychophysics
Activation, often unconsciously, of certain associations, thus predisposing one's perception, memory, or response
Prosopagnosia
Gestalt grouping principle; we group nearby figures together
Relative clarity
the study of relationship between the physical characteristic of stimuli, such as their intensity, and our psychological experience of them.
Priming
inability to recognize or perceive faces
Proximity
monocular cue for depth perception; objects that seem "fuzzier" or less clear are perceived to be farther away.

Perceptual adaptation
an illusion of movement created when two or more adjacent lights blink on and off in rapid succession
Perceptual constancy
mental predisposition to perceive a specific stimulus as one thing and not another (for example, due to suggestion or expectations based on prior learning)
Phi phenomenon
perceiving objects as unchanging (having consistent shapes, size, lightness, and color) even as illumination and retinal images change
Perceptual set
the ability to adjust to an altered perceptual reality; in vision, the ability to adjust to an artificially displaced or inverted visual field (as when wearing visual displacement goggles).
7.
MULTIPLE SELECT QUESTION
45 sec • 1 pt
the process of organizing and interpreting sensory information; enabling us to recognize meaningful objects and events.
Perceptual set
Perceptual adaptation
Perceptual constancy
Perception
