Psychological Scientists often divide the way we experience the world into two distinct phases, they are:
- A.
Sensation and Transduction
- B.
Perception and Transduction
- C.
Sensation and Perception
- D.
Qualitative and Quantitative
Correct Answer
C. Sensation and PerceptionExplanation
Psychological scientists often divide the way we experience the world into two distinct phases: sensation and perception. Sensation refers to the process of receiving and detecting sensory information from our environment, such as seeing, hearing, or feeling something. Perception, on the other hand, involves interpreting and making sense of this sensory information, allowing us to recognize and understand the world around us. These two processes work together to create our overall experience of the world.Rate this question:

How far away would a candle have to be on a dark, clear night for my brain to perceive it at a minimal level.
- A.
1 mile
- B.
10 miles
- C.
20 miles
- D.
30 miles
Correct Answer
D. 30 milesExplanation
On a dark, clear night, the minimal level at which our brain can perceive a candle depends on various factors such as the brightness of the candle, the darkness of the surroundings, and the sensitivity of our eyes. In this case, the correct answer is 30 miles, indicating that the candle would need to be positioned at a distance of 30 miles for our brain to perceive it at the minimal level. This suggests that the candle would have to emit a significantly high amount of light or be placed in an extremely dark environment for it to be visible at such a long distance.Rate this question:

A decrease in sensitivity due to a constant level of stimulation is defined in the textbook as:
- A.
Desensitization
- B.
Gustation
- C.
Sensory adaptation
- D.
Sensory decay
Correct Answer
C. Sensory adaptationExplanation
Sensory adaptation refers to a decrease in sensitivity to a constant level of stimulation. This means that over time, our sensory receptors become less responsive to a stimulus that remains unchanged. This adaptation allows our senses to focus on detecting new or changing stimuli, rather than continuously responding to unchanging ones. Therefore, sensory adaptation is the correct term for this phenomenon.Rate this question:

Having two ears helps us locate the source of the sound due to differences in timing and intensity between the two sounds.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Having two ears helps us locate the source of sound due to differences in timing and intensity between the two sounds. When a sound reaches one ear before the other, our brain processes this information to determine the direction from which the sound is coming. Additionally, the intensity or volume of the sound may be slightly different in each ear, allowing us to further pinpoint the source. Therefore, it is true that having two ears assists in sound localization.Rate this question:

Light in the center of the visual field increases the firing frequency of neurons while light in the surround decreases firing.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
This statement is true because of the phenomenon known as center-surround organization in visual processing. In the visual system, there are specialized cells called receptive fields that respond to light stimuli. These receptive fields have a center region and a surrounding region. When light is presented in the center of the receptive field, the firing frequency of neurons increases. On the other hand, when light is presented in the surround region, the firing frequency of neurons decreases. This center-surround organization helps in enhancing contrast and detecting edges in visual stimuli.Rate this question:

Subtractive color mixing occurs within the stimulus while additive color mixing occurs in the receptors.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Subtractive color mixing refers to the process of creating colors by subtracting certain wavelengths of light. It occurs within the stimulus, meaning that it happens when different colored pigments or dyes are mixed together. On the other hand, additive color mixing refers to the process of creating colors by adding different wavelengths of light together. It occurs in the receptors, which are the cells in our eyes that detect light. Therefore, the statement that subtractive color mixing occurs within the stimulus while additive color mixing occurs in the receptors is true.Rate this question:

Bottom up processing is based on sensory information while top-down processing is based on our expectations.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Bottom-up processing refers to the way our brain processes information starting from the sensory receptors and moving towards higher-level cognitive processes. It involves taking in raw sensory data and building up a complete understanding of the stimulus. On the other hand, top-down processing involves using our existing knowledge, experiences, and expectations to interpret incoming sensory information. It relies on our cognitive processes to make sense of the world around us. Therefore, the statement that bottom-up processing is based on sensory information while top-down processing is based on our expectations is true.Rate this question:

A bell is rang every time a dog is given food. Eventually, the dog starts drooling when the bell is rang along. Then, the bell rang but food is not given and the behavior is eventually extinguished. A few days later, the bell is rang and the dog starts drooling again. What is this known as, when an extinguished conditioned stimulus suddenly produces a conditioned response?
- A.
Stimulus discrimination
- B.
Stimulus generalization
- C.
Spontaneous recovery
Correct Answer
C. Spontaneous recoveryExplanation
Spontaneous recovery refers to the reappearance of a conditioned response after it has been extinguished. In this scenario, the dog had learned to associate the sound of the bell with the presentation of food, but when the food was no longer given, the behavior of drooling in response to the bell was extinguished. However, after a few days, the dog started drooling again when the bell was rang, even though there was no food present. This reappearance of the conditioned response is known as spontaneous recovery.Rate this question:

- A.
Classical Conditioning
- B.
Operant Conditioning
- C.
Counterconditioning
- D.
Desensitization
Correct Answer
B. Operant ConditioningExplanation
Exposing people to small doses of a feared stimulus while having them engage in a pleasurable task fits into classical conditioning, counterconditioning, and desensitization. In classical conditioning, the feared stimulus is paired with a pleasurable task to create a new association. Counterconditioning involves replacing a negative response with a positive one. Desensitization aims to reduce fear or anxiety by gradually exposing individuals to the feared stimulus. However, it does not fit into operant conditioning, which focuses on learning through consequences and rewards for behaviors.Rate this question:

Some stimuli are more effective in producing learning.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Some stimuli are more effective in producing learning. This statement is true because different stimuli can have varying levels of impact on an individual's ability to learn and retain information. Certain stimuli, such as those that are personally relevant or emotionally engaging, tend to be more effective in capturing attention and promoting learning. Additionally, stimuli that are presented in a clear and organized manner are also more likely to facilitate learning. Therefore, it can be concluded that not all stimuli are equally effective in producing learning.Rate this question:
