12 1) Laura arrives at a park that is located very close to a factory that produces cookies.

I, II, and III only 6) When viewed from the window of a moving train, nearby objects seem to pass by more quickly than do more distant objects. This cue for depth perception is called a. Stroboscopic motion b. Motion parallax c. Motion constancy d. Linear perspective e. The Müller-Lyer illusions 7) One-year old Marcus turns away in disgust if a bitter substance is placed on his tongue. The reason for such a reaction is most likely a. an inborn distaste for bitter that protects us from potential poisons in the environment b. an inherited familial characteristic c. an example of imitation of behavior modeled by other family members d. a classically conditioned taste aversion response e. a common but temporary aversion to bitter tastes produced by cold viruses
13 8) Tina is reading an important letter when she accidentally splashes water on the paper. The water has smudged a few words, but she is still able to understand what the letter says.

It occurs where the optic nerve leaves the eye. b. It is caused by an excess of bipolar cells in the retina. c. It is most apparent in low levels of illumination. d. It is simulated only by high levels of illumination. e. It is caused by a bleaching of rhodopsin in the rods. 11) Ernst Weber s and Gustav Fechner s psychophysical laws concern the relation between which of the following? a. the perceived uniformity and size of stimulus b. the darkness of a room and the time needed for the rods to adjust c. the quality of a stimulus and the likelihood that it is perceived as pleasurable d. the perceived sizes of afterimages projected across different distances e. the intensity of a stimulus and its corresponding psychological sensation 12) The Gestalt principle that refers to an individual s tendency to perceive an incomplete figure as whole is called a. figure-ground b. motion parallax c. closure d. proximity e. shape constancy 13) Feature detectors are neurons that are turned on or off by specific features of visual stimuli like edges and movement. Where in the visual system are these features detectors located? a. occipital cortex b. retina c. optic chiasm d. lens e. cornea 14) An individual s ability to focus on a particular conversation in a noisy and crowded room is called a. auditory localization b. dichotic listening c. deep processing d. divided attention e. selective attention 15) As you watch a friend walk away from you, your retinal image of your friend gets smaller. Despite this, you do not perceive him to be shrinking. This is an example of a. motion parallax b. retinal disparity c. size constancy d. continuity e. common fate
14 16) Martin fell of his skateboard and badly bruised his elbow. He immediately began rubbing the area around the bruise until the pain subsided.
