  1. CH 4: Sensation / Perception Review Game:

  2. Please select a Team. • The Psychos • Freud Droids • The brain trust • The 6th sense • The Masters of Illusion • Those that are developmentally ahead • Pavlov’s Doggs • The authoritarian parents

  3. 30 Tasting a peanut butter sandwich is ______; remembering that you hate the taste of a peanut butter sandwich is ______. • Sensation; sensation • Perception; perception • Sensation; perception • Perception; Sensation • None of the above is correct

  4. 30 This process is responsible for the conversion of physical energy into neural impulses. • Transduction • Plasticity • Absolute threshold • Psychophysics • Adaptation

  5. 30 Nerve impulses that carry information about the external world travel along ____ to specialized processing areas in the brain. • Vestibular canals • Nerve Endings • Sensory pathways • Olfactory epithelium • Photoreceptors

  6. 30 The great smell of baked goods is more powerful when you first enter a bakery than when you have been there for a while is because of: • Sensory Adaptation • Just noticeable difference • Weber’s Law • Closure • Subliminal messaging

  7. 30 If you are able to taste one teaspoon of salt in a bucketful of hot buttered popcorn, this amount is above your: • Difference threshold • Equilibrium • Vestibular sense • Olfaction • Absolute threshold

  8. Team Scores

  9. 30 The blind spot refers to the region of the eye at which the ______ exit(s) the eye: • Blood vessels • Cones • Optic nerve • Retina • Bipolar cells

  10. 30 Snapping your fingers causes the surrounding air to: • Move in circles • Lose an electrical charge • Vibrate • Gain moisture • Implode

  11. 30 The pure sound that is produced when you strike a tuning fork has the physical properties of: • Timbre and pitch • Frequency and amplitude • Volume and loudness • Loudness and speed • Key and intensity

  12. 30 Place the following in the correct order concerning how a message travels through the ear. • Tympanic membrane, hammer/anvil/stirrup, basilar membrane, cochlea, auditory nerve • Tympanic membrane, hammer/anvil/stirrup, cochlea, basilar membrane, auditory nerve • Hammer/anvil/stirrup, tympanic membrane, cochlea, basilar membrane, auditory nerve • Cochlea, Basilar membrane, tympanic membrane, hammer/anvil/stirrup, auditory nerve • Tympanic membrane, cochlea, hammer/anvil/stirrup, basilar membrane, auditory nerve

  13. 30 Place theory argues that sounds of different frequencies induce vibration in different areas of the: • Hammer • Basilar membrane • Auditory nerve • Temporal lobe • Tympanic membrane

  14. Team Scores

  15. 30 Loudness is determined by a sound wave’s: • Pitch • Quality • Amplitude • Frequency • Speed

  16. 30 The receptors for body position and movement are located: • In the parietal cortex • In the inner ear • In the outer layer of the skin • Within the corpus callosum • Within the spinal cord

  17. 30 In bottom up processing, the resulting perception is determined by: • Stimulus features • Our expectations • Our current emotions • What others tell us • Other environmental cues

  18. 30 Using previous experience to help you understand a similar new situation describes: • Location constancy • Closure • The law of common fate • Bottom-up processing • Top-down processing

  19. 30 As a car gets closer to you, you understand that it isn’t growing larger. This is primarily due to: • Perceptual constancy • Conservation • Recognition • Perceptual ambiguity • The law of Pragnanz

  20. Team Scores

  21. 30 The concept of ______ explains why a shirt looks the same shade of orange in dim light or in sunlight. • Closure • Color Adaptation • Trichromatic theory • Color constancy • Olfaction

  22. 30 Illusions are more likely in each of the following conditions EXCEPT when: • Familiar patterns are absent • Patterns suggest conflicting meetings • Elements are combined in unusual ways • Information is missing • The stimulus is clear

  23. 30 This term describes how our brain may see a stimuli and perceive movement when in reality the stimuli may be stationary: • Experience-based inference • The artificial intelligence approach • Environmental adaptation • Gestalt psychology • Top-down processing

  24. 30 Some optical illusions utilize this concept when multiple images or objects are seen in the same drawing or picture: • Proximity • Illusory contour • Figure-ground • Ambiguity • Continuity

  25. 30 While at a football game, you see a large group of people up in the stands. According to this theory, you may assume that the people sitting next to each other in the stands know each other. • Proximity • Similarity • Figure-ground • Continuity • Common fate

  26. Team Scores

  28. 30 The school of thought that investigates the connection between stimuli and responses is: • Psychodynamic • Humanistic • Behaviorism • Cognition • Socio-cultural

  29. 30 The independent variable: • Is what one is trying to measure in a study • Must be testable • Is the condition that the researcher manipulates • Is the group that receives no treatment • Is the group that receives treatment

  30. 30 “Fight or Flight” behavior is associated with: • The parasympathetic nervous system • Central Nervous System • Sympathetic nervous system • The somatic nervous system • Interneurons

  31. Which is the correct sequence of action potential? • Cell body, axons, dendrites, axon terminals • Axons, dendrites, axon terminals, cell body • Dendrites, cell body, axons, axon terminals • Axon terminals, axons, cell body, myelin sheath, dendrites • Cell body, chemical gates, axons, axon terminals
