Problems in depth perception: perceived size and distance of familiar objects. AM 66-22.
Familiar size is usually regarded as an important empirical cue determining the apparent distances of objects. The learning process that is assumed to occur in the development of this distance cue depends upon the relation between the retinal size of an object and its physical distance from the observer (0). A simple explanation of the process involved in this cue system is as follows. In a sit...
متن کاملlanguage learning strategies and vocabulary size of iranian efl learners
learning a second or foreign language requires the manipulation of four main skills, namely, listening, reading, speaking, and writing which lead to effective communication. it is obvious that vocabulary is an indispensible part of any communication, so without a vocabulary, no meaningful communication can take place and meaningful communication relies heavily on vocabulary. one fundamental fac...
Distal and proximal size under reduced and non-reduced viewing conditions.
Of the many aspects or properties of objects a person can perceive, the perception of size has loomed large as a field of investigation. A recent review by Epstein, Park and Casey attests to continuing interest in this area.' Early investigations dealt with the processes by which a person perceives the size of an object that accords with its real or distal size. There is ample evidence that a p...
متن کاملThe Perceived Size and Shape of Objects in Peripheral Vision
Little is known about how we perceive the size and shape of objects in far peripheral vision. Observations made during an artistic study of visual space suggest that objects appear smaller and compressed in the periphery compared with central vision. To test this, we conducted three experiments. In Experiment 1, we asked participants to draw how a set of peripheral discs appeared when viewed pe...
متن کاملSpeed discrimination under stabilized and normal viewing conditions
To determine whether speed discrimination improves when the retinal image is stabilized against the effects of eye movements, thresholds were measured under stabilized and normal viewing conditions. In the normal viewing conditions, eye movements were recorded and used to estimate retinal-image speeds. Stimulus reference speed for sinusoidal gratings varied from 0.5 to 8.0 deg/sec. Results show...
