On the perceptual level, the different contexts of these conditions lead to different experiences. Based on the law of good continuation (Gestalt Psychology), as it applies to musical stimuli, expectations that arise from delays in musical phrases will yield an affective response, unless the ...
Since objects or events are not experienced only through vision, the term perception obviously applies to other sense modalities as well. Certainly things and their movement may be experienced through the sense of touch. Such experiences derive from receptors in the skin (tactile perception), but ...
It applies to Gibson's as it does to Marr's technical descriptions that they are ways of representing reality and the objects of which the experimental scenes are made up, which rely on ordinary everyday descriptions of these objects and scenes, i.e. rooms with walls and pictures on walls...
Reactivation of earlier perceptual activity is thought to underlie long-term memory recall. Despite evidence for this view, it is unclear whether mnemonic activity exhibits the same tuning properties as feedforward perceptual activity. Here, we leverage population receptive field models to parameterize fM...
The American Psychological Association (APA) Dictionary of Psychology [28] defines speech perception as: “the process in which a listener decodes, combines, and converts an incoming stream of otherwise meaningless sound created by the speech production process into a meaningful sequence and phonologic...
EMT (Haselton & Buss, 2000; Haselton & Nettle, 2006) applies to judgments under uncertainty. For instance, humans need to judge whether sticks are snakes and vice versa. We can make either a false-positive error (inferring that it is a s... MG Haselton,DM Buss - 《Journal of Persona...
278–280). In the visual output of the model, we still included the average of the Undefined phase as it serves as a useful reference point in the crisis. To examine the structural role of risk perception in the prediction of autonomous motivation and adherence (i.e., Hypothesis 2), we...
To this end, it is necessary to define a cost function, L(x,y). This function specifies the cost associated with the event of an input signal x being conveyed as the value y. An intuitive cost function might be the squared error between the channel input and output: L(x,y)=(y-x)...
Perception has sometimes been defined as "the consciousness of particular material things present to sense." Perception is as a matter of fact always a larger thing than this definition would immediately imply; because we are always aware in the "fringe," in the background of consciousness, of...
Previous studies have found that the temporal duration required for males to perceive visual motion direction is significantly shorter than that for females. However, the neural correlates of such shortened duration perception remain yet unclear. Given t
