When Palmer (1975) showed observers a kitchen scene and then a target picture, which picture was identified correctly 80% of the time? A) a loaf of bread, because it matches the context of the scene B) a mailbox, because it seems so out-of-context that it "pops out" C) a drum, because participants were music majors D) a bedroom, because it is of the same category |
