115 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
Brown & Mcneil
read dictionary definition and asked to identify word ex. Jeopardy like
Dyads of Triads
2 groups of 3 words in each and had one word related to ex. playing credit and report (card)
Posner and Snyder
automatic processes are not conscious, unintentional, use few resources
Logan
"instance theory" gain knowledge in diff ways to respond to stimuli ex. math
Langer
"mindlessness" ex. pilot forgetting to turn on switch or forgetting to stop by store after work
Reason
mistakes and slips
2 reasons why slips occur
b/c deviate from routine and auto process overrides intention OR interrupted by external or internal thoughts
forcing function
helpful feedback impossible to make slip ex. leave stuff by door or seatbelt before drive
adaptation consious, stimulus intensity, how long exposure
not related to consious control, tied with stimulus intenstiy, not related to how long exposed
habituation stimulus intensity, how long exposure
related to consious control, not with stimulus intenstiy, related to how long exposed
capture error
intend to deviate from process but do not ex. change from work clothes to dress clothes
omission
interruption in routine causes errors, ex. phone call while doing something
perservation
repeat process
description error
correct action on wrong object
4 functions of attention
divided attn, vigilance, serach, selective attn
divided attn
perform more than one task at a time
signal detection theory
how we detect stimuli based on presense or absense and nondectecton/detection
true positive
identify target
false positive
false alarm no signal there
false negative
misses not noticing signal
vigilance
waiting to detect a stimuli not expecting ex. military attack
search
look for smoke if detector goes off active process and distractors come in here
triesman (3) things
feature search and conjunction serach(look for combination of features), feature integration theory easier to do feature search than conjunction
hubel & weisel
feature dectors
similarity theory
when target and distractor similarity increase so does difficulty
colin cherry
cocktail party problem
shadowing
colin cherry, listen to 2 msg report only one back
biaural
present msg into both ears at same time impossible to understand
dichotic
diff msg in each ear
improve cocktail party problem (3)
distinct speech, volume, location of source
braodbents model
filters info only one channel reaches perception
triesmans model
ignore msg in one ear and shadow msg in other if switched then still pick up few words of old msg
broadbents vs. triesmans stimuli
block vs. attenuate
attentional resource theory
perform more than one task at once limited attn ex two verabal stimuli watching news and writing
affect attention (6)
personality & situation anxiety, arousal/interest in stimuli or distactor, nature of task, practice, stage of process (beg mid or end)
stroop effect
color of word and ink different
ulric neisser
gorilla exp
change blindness
inability to detect change in environment ex. ladder in b/t people and person
neglect
ignore half of visual field thats contralateral to lesion
access to consious thought
buy one model over anotehr model do not know how arrived at that choice ex. think about someone more if want to ignore them
perception
make sense of sensations
percept
mental representation of percieved stimulus ex. cow shaded picture
perceptual illusion
sense isnt what is perceived ex. parthenon
James gibson
study perception, distal object, infomation medium, proximal stimulation, and perceptual object
saccades
eyes make constant changes of location of projected image
perceptual constancy
perception constant even when proxial sensation of distal object changes
Ponzo illusion
size constancy object appear larger than antoher but same size ex. railroad photo
muller lyer illusion
diff lengths
shape constancy
ex door open and closed still same shape
depth
distance from object/surface ex. how loud to call friend
monocular depth cues
can observe with one eye 2d
binocular depth cue
can observe with two eyes in 3d
monocular cues closer & farther away 5 things
texture gradient, relative size, interpostition, linear perspective, and motion paraliax
binocular cues
convergent closer together
koffal, kohler, wertheimer
gestalt perception
law of prgnanz
gestalt organize diff elements into stable form
figure ground
figure and background ex. vase photo and man
gestalt principles (3)
proximity (grouping object), similarity (X & O), and closure
2 systems for recognizing patterns
recog parts of object ex. tulip parts or larger configuration tulip in garden and face recog.
prosopagnosia
inability to recog faces or reading
bottom down processing
data driven / stimulus repsonse
james gibson
direct perception dont need top down only bottom up
akinetopsia
loss motion perception life in snapshots not moving
most common blindness
red/green
template theory
perfect match ex. barcode
prototype theory
not perfect but close match ex. police identikits
feature theory
match features instead of whole ex. oliver selfridge pandemonium demons
oliver serlfridge
pandemonium demons
top down a.k.a
constructive perception builds understanding of stimulus or intelligent perception ex. stop sign covered letter & observe color when lights off
context effect
influence of surrondings on perception ex. show patient kitchen, bread, drum remember bread b/c more related to kicthen
configurational superiority
some config easier to recog even if complex compared to isolation
david marr
computational theory of perception
agnosia
cant percieve sensory info
stimulatgnosia
cant pay attn to more than one thing
spatial agnosia
everyday environment issues get lost at own home
encoding
how you transform physical sensory imput into kind of representation into memory
storage
how you retain encoded info in memory
retrivial
how to access info stored in memory
conrad
present six letters write down order had acoustic confusibility
example of nondeclaritive memory
priming habitituation procedural memory, and classical conditioning
amnesics suffer from cosolidation b/c of
electroconvulsive therapy
metamemory
reflect on own memory to imrove our memory
ebbinghaus
study over time distributed and mass practice
