Perception: Part 1
PERCEPTION
The process of recognizing and
interpreting stimulus.
Sensation is a pre-requisite of
perception.
It gives meaning to sensory stimuli.

PROCESS
1. Environmental
2. Attended Stimulus
3. Image in the Retina
4. Transduction
5. Neural Processing

4. Perception
Continuous neural
processing makes possible
the recognition and spatial
understanding of the
environmental object.

PERCEPTUAL BASICS
Sensory adaptation
Occurs when sensory receptors
change their sensitivity to the
stimulus
PERCEPTUAL CONSTANCY
Object remains the same even
though our sensation of the
object changes
Size constancy vs. shape constancy
DEPTH PERCEPTION
Monocular vs. binocular depth
cues
MONOCULAR DEPTH
CUES
Texture gradients
The clearer and bigger the
grains, the nearer the
object is.
Relative size
Bigger is closer
Relative Height
The higher the farther
Interposition
Closer objects are in front
of other objects
