38
Q

What is the scientific name for the “light house effect”?

A

Broca-Sulzer

A

True

41

A

False. It will decrease.

42
Q

Of the 40 M diseases in the US, what are these disease that are clinically relevant in regards to CFFF?

A

Optic Neuritis
MS
Diabetic Retinopathy
Sleep Apnea

43
Q

What is the Ferry Porter Law?

A

Noting that CFF is proportional to the logarithm of the luminance of flickering stimulus (L)

INCREASES LINEARLY WITH LOG BACKGROUND

44
Q

What does the Granit-Harper law theory explain?

A

CFF increases linearly with log stimulus size or diameter

A

False.

Note: Plateau is around 40Hz, which is what the human eye can detect for flicker

46
Q

True or False. Only rods are distinguished at a larger test field?

A

False. Cone and Rods both require this.

47
Q

During color and orientation processing, what occurs to the temporal resolution and integration interval?

A

High Temp. res.

Short Integration interval

48
Q

During the binding process, what happens to the temporal resolution and integration interval?

Low temporal resolution
Long integration interval

Note: Pairing is used

49
Q

What is motion?

A

Movement or change in position or place

d = vt

50
Q

What does Beta motion do?

A

switching motion from on and off (slower motion)

51
Q

What does Phi motion ?

A

A flicker occurs, goes on and then off(Rapid)

52
Q

If there is an after image and rotates in circle. You see the color, what kind of process is it?

A

Magno (creates an after image)

53
Q

What is Sigma Motion?

A

Flickering of a stripes, which look as though they are moving

54
Q

Where does motion perception occur the most in primates?

A

Cortex

55

What is Akinetopsia?

A

Motion blindness

59
Q

What is relative size?

A

Judging due to past experiences but we try to use size constancy on our retina.
Ie. Cars in the street

60
Q

What is size constancy?

A

Where an image be look the same size but in reality it is smaller than the object

61
Q

What is Familiar size?

A

From your past familiar images tell you to perceive an image but you cannot always trust it
IE. Stealth bomber

62
Q

What is Linear perspective?

A

An angle that is smaller will be perceived smaller on the retina

63
Q

What is texture?

A

Relative size is the same but the perception is further and looks larger
Ie. Checkered balls

64
Q

What is interposition?

A

Process of occulusion which blocks one item over another, therefore depth is created due to position
Ie. King of spades behind King of clubs

65
Q

What is Clarity?

A

Form of interposition, acts as a depth cue.

Ie. Fogging of light house

66
Q

What is lighting and shadow?

A

Illumination and shadow cause an illusion of depth. Light and shadow are always opposite of one another, therefore an optic shadow is created which makes an image to perceive its either behind or in front.
Ie. Mountain range with shadow

67
Q

What is the angle of declination below the horizon?

A

How big the angle relative to the horizon

d= h/tan(a)

Increased

69

True

Q

What type of function confirms that angular declination is a depth cue for distance judgement?

A

Monotonic

71
Q

What is motion parallax?

A

Both Monocular and Binocular vision, Objects that are further away tend to move slower, compared to the closer object.

Note: You can fixate on object and it can be slower than without focusing on the object
When you track something while driving

72
Q

What is Kinetic Depth Effect (KDE)

A

Illusion of depth is enhanced due to motion

73
Q

What is the definition of a psychophysical test?

A

Perception arise from a physical stimulus

74
Q

What are three psychophysical methodologies?

Threshold - VA, Contrast sensitivity
Signal Detection - Visual Field,
Weber’s Law - the 2nd part of the line graph

75
Q

What is the smallest light intensity a pt. can detect test be considered?

A

Threshold

76
Q

What is Accuracy of the Threshold?

A

Correctly measuring the value
Ex. IOP closer to one is more precise

Note: MORE IMPORTANT THAN PRECISION

77
Q

What is Precision of the Threshold?

A

Repeatablility of measurement

Ex. IOP 15, 14, 16 is more accurate than 9, 12, 17

78
Q

Do ganglion cells have a constant steady state?

A

Yes. to depict homeostasis

79
Q

What are the variables for threshold variable?

A

Neural Noise, Patient (different approaches for all pts of their attention), Motivation and Fatigue

80
Q

What is the staircase approach?

A

Graded steps (usually equal) and ask the “do you see the spot on the background”

81
Q

What is Signal detection theory?

A

Model and data method for decision problems with uncertainty (noise)

Note: Finds point of interest

82
Q

What type of eyecare is considered psychophysics?

A

Optometry
