Crash course Psychology - Perceiving is Believing

What am I? monocular visual cue in which two objects are in the same line of vision and one patially conceals the other, indicating that the first object concealed is further away

• interposition

• perception

• motion perception

• texture gradient

• linear perspective

What am I? Top-down way our brains organize and interpret information and put it into context

• interposition

• perception

• motion perception

• texture gradient

• linear perspective

What am I? Objects moving toward us: by watching the changing apparent size of an object; objects moving to one side: phi phenomenon

• interposition

• perception

• motion perception

• texture gradient

• linear perspective

What am I? the elements of a textured surface appear to be packed closer and closer together as the surface recedes and therefore texture gradients provide depth information

• interposition

• perception

• motion perception

• texture gradient

• linear perspective

What am I? A monocular cue for perceiving depth; the more parallel lines converge, the greater their perceived distance.

• texture gradient

• linear perspective

Objects that are close together are more likely to be perceived as belonging in the same group.

• proximity

• continuity

• context

• constancy

• depth perception

Objects that form a continuous form (such as a trail or geometric figure) are more likely to be perceived as belonging in the same group.

• proximity

• continuity

• context

• constancy

• depth perception

The circumstances in which something occurs, affects your perception

• proximity

• continuity

• context

• constancy

• depth perception

the ability to maintain a constant perception of an object despite changes in direct appearance

• proximity

• continuity

• context

• constancy

• depth perception

the ability to see objects in three dimensions although images that strike the retina are in two dimensions

• continuity
