Exam 4: Recognizing Objects

McClelland and Rumelhart's model of word recognition suggests that detectors on separate levels can interact in a bidirectional manner.Biological evidence ________ this notion because ________.

The bigram layer of a feature net is

Recognition errors (like mistaking CQRN for CORN)lead us to what conclusion about feature nets?

Mistakes in word recognition occur within a feature net model of recognition.One reason for this is that the feature net encourages ________ over ________.

On one trial of an experiment,a participant is shown the sequence GWXT.On a different trial,the participant is shown the sequence PAFE.On the basis of prior research,we should expect that

We might expect the fusiform face area (FFA)to be damaged in patients with

According to the recognition by components (RBC)model,which of the following is NOT true about geons?

One of the middle layers of a basic feature net contains ________ detectors.

Which of the following statements about a feature net model is FALSE?

Which of the following would be considered a benefit of a feature net?

The recognition of faces

English nonwords (e.g. ,"HICE")are easier to perceive than strings of letters not resembling English words (e.g. ,"RSFK")because

You are driving in your car listening to the radio when a new song by your favorite artist comes on.Describe how top-down and bottom-up processing both contribute to your ability to identify (either correctly or incorrectly)the lyrics of the song.

What sort of processing is driven primarily by factors in the environment or in the stimulus?

Compared to detectors that have not fired recently,a detector that has fired recently is likely to

The word-superiority effect refers to the fact that it is easier to recognize

Some models of word recognition include detectors that ________ one another,so that activation of one detector decreases activation in another detector.

"Bottom-up" (or "data-driven")mechanisms are

In tachistoscopic recognition,participants often make overregularization errors.These are errors in which participants

In a tachistoscopic procedure,a word is likely to be more difficult to recognize if it
