Questions and Answers

What is the first stage of visual object recognition?

  • Recognizing familiar objects
  • Differentiating figure from ground (correct)
  • Understanding spatial relationships
  • Identifying specific features
  • How is the differentiation of objects from backgrounds different from visual sensation?

  • It requires understanding spatial relationships
  • It focuses on identifying specific features

  • What are we highly predisposed to do in terms of differentiating objects from backgrounds?

  • Ignore familiar objects
  • Focus solely on the background
  • Blur the spatial relationships
  • Differentiate objects from backgrounds (correct)
