Chapter 3: Perception
  1. Perceptual Constancy: brain illusions
    1. Shape Constancy-adjust for changes in image shape
      1. Brightness Constancy-adjust for changes in color/brightness
        1. Size Constancy-depth perception
        2. Gestalt Principals-the brain forces patterns onto visual stimulus
          1. Figure-ground illusion: brain focuses on figure and ignores the ground
            1. Proximity-objects closer together perceived as part of group
              1. Similarity-objects that look similar belong together
                1. Closure-tendency to see incomplete figures as complete
                  1. Continuity-mind looks for simplest pattern that is continuous
                    1. Contiguity-perceive things that occur close in time as being related
                      1. Common region-perceive objects that are in a common area as being part of a group
                      2. Depth Perception-ability to see the world in 3-D
                        1. Monocular Cues-perceived by one eye alone
                          1. Interposition-something is between the viewer and the background
                            1. Linear Perspective
                              1. Relative Size-smaller=farther away
                                1. Texture Gradient-detail up close
                                  1. Aerial Perspective-know position in relation to image
                                    1. Motion Parallax- when a person is moving, objects at different distances seem to be moving at different speeds
                                    2. Binocular Cues-perceived by both eyes
                                      1. Convergence-eyes get closer together as the object gets closer
                                        1. Binocular Diversity-images in each eye are more similar the farther away an object is
                                      2. Stroboscopic Effect-a rapid series of still pictures appear as movement
                                        1. Autokinetic Effect-small light in a dark room appears to be moving because there are no other cues to indicate that its not
                                          1. Phi-lights illuminated in a series appear to move
