Exam 5: Visual Pattern Perception

David Marr is most closely associated with the __________________ approach.

The size of the visual angle depends on:

The __________________ approach focuses on luminance changes as a cue to shape perception.

Campbell and Robson proposed that individual neurons in the visual cortex:

In looking at the figure below, we tend to see the star and the square as grouped together rather than the star and the moon, even though the star is physically closer to the moon than it is the square. This demonstrates:

The computational approach emphasizes the importance of:

According to the __________________ approach, we perceive objects as well-organized "wholes" rather than separated, isolated parts.

Regarding our perceptions of stimuli presented in unusual orientations:

A "contrast sensitivity function" is a diagram that illustrates the relationship between:

Shape constancy refers to the phenomenon that the __________________ stimulus remains roughly unchanged although the __________________ stimulus changes.

According to the __________________ approach, we store abstract, idealized patterns in memory. (p. 131)

According to the feature-integration approach, the first stage involves __________________ which takes place with __________________ processing.

What is the word-superiority effect?

In visual perception:

Which of the following statements about the 2.5-D sketch is FALSE?

The law of Prägnanz was described by:

Which of the following statements about facial attractiveness is FALSE?

The __________________ approach proposes that shape perception emerges from both preattentive processing and focused attention.

In psychology, "context" refers to:

When we perform a Fourier analysis, we:
