Chapter 7 Mental Imagery & Mental Maps

What group opposed mental imagery?
Behaviorists
Anglists
Neuropsychologists
Linguists
What was Shepard and Metzler's research?
Line figures and angle rotation
Line figures and memory imaging
Language and propositional code
Sign Language
What did Kosslyn &Co. Find when it came to scanning distance?
Scanning of far and near locations were nearly identical
Scanning of near locations was faster than far locations
Scanning of far locations were faster than close locations
Scanning of near locations was slower than far locations
How would learning sign language influence our mental rotation and arrangement abilities
Decrease
Same
Increase
Slow down
Which of these statements about mental imagery is incorrect?
Larger items take more time to rotate
Distance judgement in the mental vs. The physical are very similar
Judgement of shape in the mental and the physical are similar
Mental imagery is 100% propositional code
None of the above
An experimenter tells an observer that the results seem to be biased towards a certain result, what is this experimenter doing?
Hindsight Bias
Foresight Bias
Experimenter Expectancy
Experimenter Validation
Segal & Fusella did an experiment where participants had to first create either a visual or auditory image. Researchers then presented a physical stimulus from the image made by the participant and measured their ability to detect physical stimuli. What were the results of the study?
When the modality created by the participant matched the modality presented it made it EASIER to perceive the physical stimuli
When the modality created by the participant matched the modality presented by the experimenter it made it HARDER to perceive physical stimuli
It did not matter if the modality's matched, there was no conceivable difference in perception of stimuli.
Segal & Fusella did not perform this experiment, it was done by Kosslyn & Co.
Stephen Reed's research on the detection of correspondence of paired figures found that:
Analog code is used for complex figures
Propositional code is used for easier figures
Propositional code is used for complex figures
Participants were correct 95% of the time when pairing figures
Neuroscience shows us that mental imagery is reliant on what factor?
Bottom-up processing
Top-down processing
Phonological loop
Angle rotations
Which is not a component of spatial ability?
Spatial visualization
Spatial perception
Mental Rotation
Demand Characteristics
Joe tends to see several structures as more lined up than they really are, what is causing this?
Symmetrical Heuristic
90-Degree Heuristic
Alignment Heuristic
Rotation Heuristic
What did Hirtle & Mascolo find?
Physically rotating blocks activates the same areas as mentally rotating blocks
People tend to put same semantic significance closer together in their mind
People of England thought most angles in the streets was 90 degrees
Paired figures used propositional code if complex
