6What is intersensory redundance theory?
- AThe infant's occipital system is particularly attuned to amodal info that's presented to one sensory mode
- BThe infant's perceptual system is particularly attuned to amodal info that's presented to one sensory mode
- CThe idea that Taylor Swift's favorite number is 13, which is backed by science – girl science
- DThe infant's perceptual system is particularly attuned to amodal info that's presented to multiple sensory modes
7[blank_start]Size[blank_end] constancy is the realization that an object's actual size remains the same despite changes in the size of its retinal image.
- ASize
8What is it called when on a glass-covered platform, on one side, a pattern appears directly under the glass, but on the other, it appears several feet below the glass?
- AVisual glass
- BVisual cliff
- CVisual platform
- DTaylor's 3rd album, Speak Now (TV)
9The smallest pattern that can be distinguished dependably is called visual activity

11What are kinetic cues?
- AA type of depth prompt that the human eye perceives when viewing two parallel lines that appear to meet at a distance
- BDepth cues based on motion, such as visual acuity and motion parallel
- CDepth cues based on motion, such as visual expansion and motion parallax

- AVisual disparity
- BRetinal disparity
- CDisparity
- DTired eyes
13Which is NOT an example of pictorial cues
- ALinear perspectives

18What is perceptual processing?
- AThe smallest pattern that can be distinguished dependably
- BThe ability to move around in the world
- CSelecting, organizing, and interpreting info

19Inderdispostion is a type of monocular cue in which one object partially obscures or covers another object, giving the perception that the object that is partially covered is farther away
- ATrue
- BFalse
20Relative [blank_start]size[blank_end] is when two objects are similar in size and we perceive the one that casts a smaller retinal image to be farther away.
