Depth Perception

Clues about distance based on the image of one eye.

• binocular depth cues
• monocular depth cues
• subliminal stimulation

Clues about distance requiring two eyes.

• monocular depth cues
• place theory
• binocular depth cues

Which of the following is not a monocular cue for depth?

• convergence
• texture gradient
• linear perspective
• shadowing

A binocular cue that allows for depth perception when images from the two eyes differ 

• Relative size 
• Color Constancy
• Linear perception
• Retinal Disparity

Carlos was just able to perceive a difference in weight when Maria removed two of the 50 jelly beans from his plastic bag. It is most likely that if Carlos had a jumbo bag of 100 jelly beans, the smallest number of jelly beans he cold notice removed would be 

• 2
• 4
• 8
• 16

Your tendency to see the words "went" and "ties," rather than the word "twenties" when you look at T WENT TIES is best explained by the organizing principle of

• Closure
• Continuity
• Figure-ground
• Proximity

Weber's Law states that

• In humans, adult perception is superior to adolescent perception
• Humans tend to grossly underestimate changes in aversive stimuli
• The Just Noticeable Difference is typically illusory 
• The smallest noticeable change in a stimulus is proportional to the original stimulus 

The brain ignores sensory messages as it deems them to be "normal" or unimportant.

• Convergence
• Activation Synthesis
• Decay
• Habituation (Adaption) 

If you move your watchband up your wrist an inch or so, you will feel it for only a few moments. This best illustrates: 

• parallel processing
• accommodation
• sensory adaption
• Weber's Law

As we look at a flower, the intensity, or brightness, of the color we see is related to the light wave’s:

• amplitude
• hue
• length
• placement on the spectrum
