(NEWEST) PSYC 230 FINAL EXAM QUESTIONS AND
CORRECT ANSWERS
The following is top-down processing: ANSWER A process via which our
preexisting understanding of a thing shapes our perception of it
The method that groups many elements in the surroundings so that we can
recognise them in intricate settings is called: ANSWER Perceptual Structure
The experience viewers have of determining which portion of a picture is in
front and which is in the background of a specific scene is known as figure-
ground organisation.
ANSWER Edge completion is the process by which we perceive a physically
absent but inferred edge, completing the perception of a partially obscured
object.
T/F Our perception and identification of objects in the future are permanently
altered by our prior knowledge and experience with them. The answer is yes.
Geons are as follows: ANSWER The fundamental building blocks of objects,
which include basic forms like pyramids and cylinders
Face agnosia, or a neurological lesion that impairs facial perception, is referred
to as: ANSWER Prosopagnosia
All human brains have faces, but not all faces have human minds, as noted by
Looser and Wheatley (2010). In their research: ANSWER They examined
reactions to photos of genuine faces as well as photos of dolls and mannequins
using electroencephalographic (EEG) technology.
ANSWER Representation is the process of storing and/or reconstructing
information in memory while it is not being used.
, ANSWER Perceptual organisation is the process by which many items in the
environment are categorised, enabling us to recognise different objects in
complex scenarios.
Human single-cell recordings before brain surgery were examined by Quiroga
et al. (2005). They discovered that: ANSWER The medial temporal lobe's
particular cells seemed to be unique to each individual.
The statement "The perception that emerges from a physical scene may not be
directly predicted by the sensory components that it is composed of, but
emerges when we integrate the components into a whole" is linked to which
school of psychology? ANSWER Gestalt psychology
The process of bottom-up processing is: ANSWER A mechanism via which our
perceptions of physical stimuli are influenced
The answer to top-down processing is A process via which our preexisting
understanding of a thing shapes our perception of it
ANSWER Hue is the colour quality of light that corresponds to the colour
names we use, such as orange, green, indigo, and cyan.
What distinguishes subtractive colour mixing from additive colour mixing?
ANSWER Mixing lights of different colours results in additive colour mixing,
while mixing paints or other coloured materials results in subtractive colour
mixing.
Any single cone system is colourblind according to the following principle,
which states that various wavelength and intensity combinations can cause the
cone system to respond in the same way: The Univariance of the Answer
The idea that the output of the three cone systems in our retinae determines the
colour of any light is called the ANSWER Trichromatic colour vision
hypothesis
The following is the name for colour vision loss brought on by occipital lobe
damage: ANSWER Achromatopsia in the cortical
