Question 2

In the context of lighting in the retinal image, which statement explains that distant objects appear LESS distinct than nearby objects?

Accepted Answer

A)  The farther away an object is, the less air the light must pass through to reach us, and the more that light can be scattered. 
B)  When the air is very clear and dry, less air passes through the light to reach us that makes objects appear increasingly hazy with distance. 
C)  The farther away an object is, the more air the light must pass through to reach us, and the more that light can be scattered. 
D)  As you move through the environment, more distant objects move more slowly across your retina than nearby objects, making it less distinct.

Question 3

In order to switch focus from one object to the other object, an observer in this situation would have to increase the angle of convergence between the eyes. Hence, the disparity of objects closer than the horopter is called _____ disparity.

Accepted Answer

A)  zero 
B)  stereopsis 
C)  crossed 
D)  uncrossed 
A)  zero 
B)  stereopsis 
C)  crossed 
D)  uncrossed

Question 4

How would your perception of depth change if your eyes were one foot apart? What depth cues, in particular, would be affected?

Accepted Answer

Oculomotor depth cues: convergence would

Question 5

When the visual angle for a basketball is less than the visual angle for a baseball, then the:

Accepted Answer

A)  basketball must be closer to the observer than the baseball. 
B)  basketball must be farther away from the observer than the baseball. 
C)  basketball and the baseball are located at the same distance from the observer. 
D)  basketball partially occulates a more distant baseball. 
A)  basketball must be closer to the observer than the baseball. 
B)  basketball must be farther away from the observer than the baseball. 
C)  basketball and the baseball are located at the same distance from the observer. 
D)  basketball partially occulates a more distant baseball.

Question 6

In an fMRI experiment conducted by Murray et al. (2006) where the researchers studied the brain's response to ponzo illusion, it was found that:

Accepted Answer

A)  the objects and surfaces near the point toward which a person heads move outward slowly in the retinal image. 
B)  when the object is perpendicular to the line of sight, the retinal image has the same trapezoidal shape as the object. 
C)  there is a larger area of activity in V1 when the participants were fixating at the center of the "large" sphere than when they were fixating at the center of the "small" one. 
D)  the depth cues of linear perspective and texture gradients lead to the perception of two same-sized spheres.
