Comparison
process as a factor of size-distance relationship
T. Makino |
How
are the two stimuli presented at different distances compared with
each other, and how is the degree of size-constancy by matching method
determined? These are the problems of this paper. We consider "mental
slide" or "mental sliding" as to the comparison of
the two stimuli presented at different distances. Both the gradient
of mental slide and the mental sliding distance determine the degree
of size-constancy. We suggest a formula which predicts the degree
of size-constancy by matching method and a size-distance relationship.
