Category effects on the processing of plane-rotated objects.

چکیده
We examined the effects of plane rotations on the identification of exemplars of three semantic categories. In the first two experiments line drawings belonging to three categories (animals, inanimate objects, and vegetables) were presented at four orientations (0 degree, 60 degrees, 120 degrees, and 180 degrees of clockwise rotation). The response time was found to depend on stimulus category. In particular, whereas rotation effects were shown for animals, no effect at all was found for vegetables and only partial effects were found for inanimate objects. The unclear pattern found for inanimate objects was further examined in experiment 3 where the orientation effects on the identification of two subsets of the inanimate category were studied. The hypothesis of view-observation frequency was confirmed. In experiment 4, line drawings of objects at different orientations were presented in physically degraded versions. The minimum amount of visual information necessary to identify rotated stimuli was found to vary as a function of stimulus category as well. Results are discussed, combining current research on both viewpoint-dependence/independence and neural systems involved in category processing.

Induced Gamma Band Responses Predict Recognition Delays during Object Identification
Neural mechanisms of object recognition seem to rely on activity of distributed neural assemblies coordinated by synchronous firing in the gamma-band range (>20 Hz). In the present electroencephalogram (EEG) study, we investigated induced gamma band activity during the naming of line drawings of upright objects and objects rotated in the image plane. Such plane-rotation paradigms elicit view-de...

متن کاملEffects of distance between objects and distance from the vertical axis on shape identity judgments.
In three experiments, we independently manipulated the angular disparity between objects to be compared and the angular distance between the central axis of the objects and the vertical axis in a mental rotation paradigm. There was a linear increase in reaction times that was attributable to both factors. This result held whether the objects were rotated (with respect to each other and to the u...
متن کاملON Q-BITOPOLOGICAL SPACES
We study here $T_{0}$-$Q$-bitopological spaces and sober $Q$-bitopological spaces and their relationship with two particular Sierpinski objects in the category of $Q$-bitopological spaces. The epireflective hulls of both these Sierpinski objects in the category of $Q$-bitopological spaces turn out to be the category of $T_0$-$Q$-bitopological spaces. We show that only one of these Sierpinski ob...
