Description
Summary:碩士 === 高雄醫學院 === 行為科學研究所 === 85 === The present study provides explanations for the relative judgments of sizeand distance and related issues involving size and distance perceptionin reduced conditions. Although some assumptions of previous theoriesare discussed, other effects are retained in our study. The purpose ofexperiment 1 was to access the effects of object familiarity, convergenceor divergence and instructions in relative judgments of size and distancesimultaneously. The purpose of experiment 2 was to access the effects ofobject familiarity, convergence or divergence and instructions in relativejudgments of size and distance independently. The effects of familiarityand instructions in both experiment 1 and experiment 2 did not affect theresult of the judge relationship of size and distance. Convergence anddivergence can serve as a source of information about size and distancejudgments in both experiments. The results show that presenting targetssuccessively or discontinuously may cause an inverse relation betweenrelative judgements of perceived size and distance The vivid effects showin the vergence changes to make the relative size and distance judgments.The most important, neither size-distance invariance hypothesis (SDIH) orsize-distance paradox (SDP) can explain all the conditions in this study. Inparticular, the present study states that the cognitive factors are importantreferents in judging the relationship of size and distance.
