Across
  1. 3. processing: Processing multiple aspects of a problem simultaneously.
  2. 6. processing: Data-driven processing; features build perception.
  3. 8. Figure-ground, Grouping: Organizing stimuli into meaningful wholes.
  4. 11. theory: Opposing retinal processes enable color vision.
  5. 14. cue: Depth cue available to either eye alone.
  6. 16. blindness: Failure to see visible objects when attention directed elsewhere.
  7. 17. set: Tendency to perceive things in a certain way.
  8. 18. Lens changes shape to focus images on retina.
  9. 20. detection theory: Detecting stimulus depends on intensity and psychological state.
  10. 22. Sense of body position and movement.
  11. 23. cliff: Tests depth perception in infants and animals.
  12. 26. Converting stimuli into neural impulses.
  13. 27. Exposure to one stimulus influences response to another.
  14. 28. trichromatic (three-color) theory: Retina has three color receptors.
  15. 29. Organizing and interpreting sensory information.
Down
  1. 1. blindness: Failure to notice changes in environment.
  2. 2. constancy: Perceiving familiar objects as having consistent color.
  3. 4. Frequency, Pitch, Sensorineural hearing loss, Conduction hearing loss: Aspects of hearing and hearing impairment.
  4. 5. processing: Experience influences perception; context matters.
  5. 7. attention: Focusing on one stimulus, ignoring others.
  6. 9. sense: Sense of balance and head movement.
  7. 10. detectors: Neurons responding to specific visual features.
  8. 12. Sense of smell.
  9. 13. Hue, Intensity: Properties of light determining color and brightness.
  10. 15. cue- Retinal disparity: Eyes see slightly different images; depth cue.
  11. 19. threshold: Minimum stimulation needed to detect a stimulus 50% of time.
  12. 20. Raw sensory input from environment; detecting stimuli.
  13. 21. threshold: Smallest detectable difference between two stimuli.
  14. 24. phenomenon: Illusion of movement from successive still images.
  15. 25. receptors: Cells detecting stimuli like light, sound, touch.
