Stimulus Variables Determining Space Perception in Infants.
نویسنده
چکیده
It was shown previously that infants who have neither reached nor crawled discriminate changes in spatial position on the basis of cues other than the projective size of objects displaced in space. It is now shown that binocular vision is not necessary for discrimination and that pictorial cues are not sufficient for discrimination. Parallax variables provide the information used by such infants for the discrimination of size and distance.

Explain the concept of human empathy perception of the constructed space (Architecture and city)
The quality of human perception of the environment is a determining factor in achieving responsive architecture. After the theories of behavioral sciences and environment, the idea of empathy with space has presented a new perspective on human perception of the environment; It is derived from the function of the mirror neurons of the brain, and results in an emotional sharing between the obs...
متن کاملAssessing users' visual perception based on the regular and irregular geometry of space organizer
Perception is a cognitive process depends on various factors of the environment. The user's mentality can affect his perception, understanding, and behavior in the environment. Organizing the environment is one of the important factors in the formation of spatial communication of elements that can be an important factor in understanding the person from his or her surroundings. In this research,...
متن کاملNear infrared spectroscopy reveals neural activation during face perception in infants and adults
We used near infrared spectroscopy to measure changes in cerebral oxygenation in both human infants and adults as they viewed images of faces or control “visual noise” stimuli. At an occipital site, adults showed a significant increase in oxyhaemoglobin and a contrasting pattern of results was observed in infants. While the same general difference between the processing of the two stimuli was o...
متن کاملPeripheral stimulus localization by infants: attention, age, and individual differences in heart rate variability.
The effect of attention to a focal stimulus on 3- to 6-month-old infants' peripheral stimulus localization was examined. Fixation was engaged on a central visual stimulus, and a stimulus was presented in the periphery after discrete time intervals (0 to 12 s) or until changes in heart rate (HR) occurred. Peripheral stimulus localization occurred less frequently when a significant HR deceleratio...
متن کاملExploratory experiments on the stimulus conditions for the perception of a visual surface.
It is possible that the simplest visual perceptions are those of surface and edge (1). These impressions can be obtained when the eyes are fixated, i.e., without having to consider the effect of the succession of overlapping retinal images normally obtained when the visual environment is scanned. They can probably be explained without reference to the stimulation arising from the posture and th...
