What type of model is parallel distributed processing model? What is associative agnosia
|
connectionist ; associative agnosia means you cant recognize objects but can draw it
|
|
|
What is a distal stimulus vs a proximal one?
|
distal stimulus is one perceived in the environment, proximal stimulus is one you process to point of recognition
|
|
|
Motion parallax
|
the greater the distance you are from an object the less it seems to move when you’re travelling by
|
|
|
What is the role of information? Where in the processing model would identity or meaning be processed?
|
Information reduces uncertainty and its value increases as the probability of a response occurrence decreases; in the limited capacity channel after filter selection
|
|
|
What is the central idea behind info processing theories?
|
that of information theory: the information provided by a particular message is not determined by the signal alone, but by the whole array of possible messages of which that particular message could have been selected. The less likely a signal is, the more information it conveys.

What is the constructionist approach to perception? What else do structuralists believe ...
|
perception is a result of incoming info as well as perceivers construal of the info- mental representations;

|
How do patients with prosopagonsia and capgras differ?
|
Patients with prosopagnosia suffer from a conscious impairment of face recognition, while retaining an ability to recognize familiar faces below the threshold of awareness (as measured by SCR). Patients with Capgras Syndrome show the opposite facial recognition capabilities. These patients are able to consciously distinguish familiar faces from unfamiliar ones, but they appear to lack the non-conscious recognition

|
Both objective and subjective thresholds are__. What is the pre-motor theory?
|
unconscious; Pre-motor theory: covert attention is merely your motor system preparing to make a saccade and once the saccade is made it becomes overt, thus they are two steps in one system
|
|
|
What are the 5 stages of the Now Print theory?
|
- is it suppressing?
- is it important (consequentiality) - becomes flashbulb- memory recorded in presise detail - rehearsal - account we recount to other people |
|
|
What are two ways of processing more deeply?
|
elaboration and distinctiveness
|
|
|
what are spoonerisms and what type of error do they illustrate?
|
2. Spoonerisms are speech errors that occur when sounds that should appear later in a sentence intrude into earlier words. These illustrate the anticipatory errors described by Norman in that the response (intruding sound) occurs earlier in the sequence (sentence) than it would if it was only triggered by the immediately preceding stimulus (or immediately preceding word sound).

What is the best way to present data so that it is understood?
|
using frequencies- like population impact number
