Question | Answer |
IS VISION CONTINUOUS? | Vision is NOT continuous. The brain puts together a continuous visual experience from a sequence of fixations and saccades. |
FIXATIONS | In the human eye movement, the periods when the eyes stop or hesitate in order to focus or gaze upon a visual object. |
SACCADES | In the human eye movement, the periods when the eyes rapidly scan within the vertical or horizontal planes of the visual field. |
THE STARTLE REFLEX | In animals, including humans, the startle response is a largely unconscious defensive response to sudden or threatening stimuli, such as sudden noise or sharp movement, and is associated with negative affect. |
THE ORIENTATING RESPONSE | The orienting response (OR), also called orienting reflex, is an organism's immediate response to a change in its environment, when that change is not sudden enough to elicit the startle reflex |
STROOP EFFECT |
