SPECIALIZES
IN
RECOGNIZING
LARGER CONFIGURATIONS, NOT
ANALYZING PARTS OF OBJECTS OR
THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE
OBJECTS.

A

CONFIGURATIONAL
SYSTEM

20
Q

recognize objects by observing the edges of
them and then decomposing the objects into geons.

A

Recognition-by-components theory

21
Q

suggest that our
minds store myriad sets of
templates

A

Template theories

22
Q

considers the appearance of
an object relative to the viewe

A

VIEWER-CENTERED
REPRESENTATION

23
Q

the information in
our sensory receptors, including the
sensory context, is all we need to
perceive anything

A

Direct perception

24
Q

As the environment supplies us with
all the information we need for
perception, this view is sometimes
also called

A

ecological perception

25
by which objects presented in certain configurations are easier to recognize than the objects presented in isolation, even if the objects in the configurations are more complex than those in isolation.
Configural-superiority effect
26
We tend to group objects on the basis of their similarity
Similarity
27
We tend to perceive objects as forming mirror images about their center
Law of symmetry
28
What is the four pandemonium
Image Feature Cognitive Decision
29
participants were slowed down if they had to identify local (small) S’s combining to form a global (big) H instead of identifying local (small) H’s combining to form a global (big) H.
Global precedence effect
30
Participants more quickly identify the local features of the individual letters than the global ones, and the local features interfere with the global recognition in cases of contradictory stimuli
local precedence effect
31
recognizable creature is staring them in the face, but they may not see it
Dallenbach's Cow
32
show that sometimes we cannot perceive things that exist. At other times, however, we perceive things that do not exist.
Illusion Ex. Elusive triangles
