Categorical Biases in Perceiving Spatial Relations
We investigate the effect of spatial categories on visual perception. In three experiments, participants made same/different judgments on pairs of simultaneously presented dot-cross configurations. For different trials, the position of the dot within each cross could differ with respect to either categorical spatial relations (the dots occupied different quadrants) or coordinate spatial relatio...
متن کاملPerceiving Spatial Relations via Attentional Tracking and Shifting
Perceiving which of a scene's objects are adjacent may require selecting them with a limited-capacity attentional process. Previous results support this notion [1-3] but leave open whether the process operates simultaneously on several objects or proceeds one by one. With arrays of colored discs moving together, we first tested the effect of moving the discs faster than the speed limit for foll...
متن کاملInfant holding biases and their relations to hemispheric specializations for perceiving facial emotions.
Since Salk [Salk, L. (1960). The effects of the normal heartbeat sound on the behavior of the new-born infant: implications for mental health. World Mental Health 12, 168-175] reported a left-side preference for cradling an infant, several studies have attempted to elucidate the origin of this bias. Sex and handedness were the first variables tested but none of them is sufficient for explaining...
متن کاملProcessing of above/below categorical spatial relations by baboons (Papiopapio).
Three video-formatted experiments investigated the categorization of 'above' and 'below' spatial relations in baboons (Papio papio). Using an identity matching-to-sample task, six baboons correctly matched line-dot stimuli based on the 'above' or 'below' location of the dot relative to the line (Experiment 1). Positive transfer of performance was then observed when the line-dot distance depicte...
متن کاملCategorical relations in shape perception.
Many researchers have proposed that objects are perceived as structural descriptions, which specify the configuration of an object's features (or parts) in terms of their categorical relations to one another. Others have proposed that objects are perceived as views, which specify the configuration of an object's features in terms of their coordinates, in particular 2D views. This paper presents...
