Question 1

Question
What are sensory and perceptual processes?
Answer
  • The means by which people receive, select, modify, and organize stimulation from in-n-out
  • The means by which people receive, select, modify, and organize stimulation from the world
  • The means by which people modify stimulation from the world
  • The means by which people smell and see things

Question 2

Question
[blank_start]Motor[blank_end] skills are coordinated movements of the muscles and skills
Answer
  • Motor

Question 3

Question
[blank_start]Habituation[blank_end] is when a novel stimulus is presented; babies pay more attention but gradually less attention when it becomes familiar.
Answer
  • Habituation
  • Assimilation
  • Accomodation
  • Centration

Question 4

Question
Auditory threshold refers to the loudest sound that a person can hear.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 5

Question
What is it called when certain info, such as duration, rate, and intensity, (is amodal) in that it can be presented in different senses?
Answer
  • Amodal presentation
  • Amodal information
  • Amodal senses

Question 6

Question
What is intersensory redundance theory?
Answer
  • The infant's occipital system is particularly attuned to amodal info that's presented to one sensory mode
  • The infant's perceptual system is particularly attuned to amodal info that's presented to one sensory mode
  • The idea that Taylor Swift's favorite number is 13, which is backed by science – girl science
  • The infant's perceptual system is particularly attuned to amodal info that's presented to multiple sensory modes

Question 7

Question
[blank_start]Size[blank_end] constancy is the realization that an object's actual size remains the same despite changes in the size of its retinal image.
Answer
  • Size

Question 8

Question
What is it called when on a glass-covered platform, on one side, a pattern appears directly under the glass, but on the other, it appears several feet below the glass?
Answer
  • Visual glass
  • Visual cliff
  • Visual platform
  • Taylor's 3rd album, Speak Now (TV)

Question 9

Question
The smallest pattern that can be distinguished dependably is called visual activity
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 10

Question
In the retina of the eye, specialized neurons that detect wavelengths are called [blank_start]cones[blank_end].
Answer
  • cones
  • cornea
  • optic nerve
  • pupil

Question 11

Question
What are kinetic cues?
Answer
  • A type of depth prompt that the human eye perceives when viewing two parallel lines that appear to meet at a distance
  • Depth cues based on motion, such as visual acuity and motion parallel
  • Depth cues based on motion, such as visual expansion and motion parallax
  • Cues that are kinetic

Question 12

Question
What are perceptual cues to depth based on the fact that, when a person views an object, the retinal images in the left and right eyes differ, called?
Answer
  • Visual disparity
  • Retinal disparity
  • Disparity
  • Tired eyes

Question 13

Question
Which is NOT an example of pictorial cues
Answer
  • Linear perspectives
  • Interposition
  • Texture
  • None of the above, they're all examples

Question 14

Question
What is linear perspective?
Answer
  • A type of depth prompt that the human eye perceives when viewing two parallel lines that appear to meet at a distance
  • A type of depth prompt that a mantis shrimp eye perceives when viewing two parallel lines that appear to meet at a distance
  • A type of depth prompt that T Swiftie perceives when viewing her audience that appears to meet at a distance
  • A perspective of linear perspective

Question 15

Question
Check in: how are you feeling?
Answer
  • I'm gonna ace this midterm
  • I got this
  • I'm feeling confident!

Question 16

Question

  • Individual motions
  • Distinguishing and mastering individual motions

Question 18

Question
What is perceptual processing?
Answer
  • The smallest pattern that can be distinguished dependably
  • The ability to move around in the world
  • Selecting, organizing, and interpreting info
  • Cognitive activities that require virtually no effort

Question 19

Question
Inderdispostion is a type of monocular cue in which one object partially obscures or covers another object, giving the perception that the object that is partially covered is farther away
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 20

Question
Relative [blank_start]size[blank_end] is when two objects are similar in size and we perceive the one that casts a smaller retinal image to be farther away.
Answer
  • size

Question 21

Question
What are the processes that determine which info will be processed further by an individual called?
Answer
  • Locomotion
  • 1989
  • Attention
  • Perceptual processing

Question 22

Question
What is an orienting response?
Answer
  • An organism's immediate response to a change which is not sudden enough to elicit the startle reflex
  • A response which orients an orienting response
  • An organism's delayed response to a change that is not sudden enough to elicit the startle reflex
