Perception of Body Size in Schizophrenia

Archives of General Psychiatry, 1962
In an earlier preliminary study, Cleveland 1 found that schizophrenics overestimate body size when making size judgments from photographs of body parts. Moreover, schizophrenics exceeded a hospital control group in size estimates made from photographs of such body parts as a heart and stomach, as well as a hand and foot.

Perception of Size of Movement Patterns

Journal of Motor Behavior, 1979
Physiological data suggest that perception and memory of kinesthesis may differ depending on whether a movement pattern is actively commanded or passively induced. An attempt was made to demonstrate a difference between these two types of movements by employing a cross-modal visual recognition test of size perception.

Understanding public perception of bra size

Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgery, 2022
Breast cup size is often used in conversations between patients and their surgeons to communicate about goals and expectations for postoperative results. Cup size, however, is a poorly defined concept. The goal of this study was to assess whether the perception of breast cup size is consistent in a general population of survey respondents.A survey ...

NOTE ON DEVELOPMENT OF PERCEPTION OF SIZE

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 2007
The development of the perception of size is currently interpreted as the development of size constancy. Using data from prior studies, this paper reports a functional measurement analysis of the perceived size of rectangles located on a frontal plane.

In Color Perception, Size Matters

IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications, 2012
In designing colors for digital visualization systems. one of the most critical factors is the interaction between size and color appearance. Whereas artists and visual designers understand this, recommendations for using color in visualization rarely address the issue, or even recognize it.

The Perception of Room Size

Environment and Behavior, 1984
Three studies were conducted that explore the relationship between the shape and the perceived size of rectangular and square rooms. In each study, subjects were asked to estimate the size of rooms that varied in their ratio of length to width.

The Size Illusion: Visual and Kinaesthetic Information in Size Perception

Perception, 1985
Earlier studies have shown the size of kinaesthetically presented two-dimensional movement patterns to be significantly overestimated. Whether this size overestimation is characteristic of the kinaesthetic system alone has not been established. Two experiments are reported which were designed to investigate size judgment made after kinaesthetic and ...

Visual perception of changing size: The effect of object size

Vision Research, 1979
Abstract Since marked threshold elevations specific to changing size were produced by rectangular stimuli whose widths were less than 1.5°, but not by wider rectangles we suggest that changing size filters are not sensitive to pairs of edges separated by more than about 1.5°.

Size Constancy and Angular Size Matching in Size Perception of Near Objects

Optometry and Vision Science, 1999
ABSTRACT: Accurate judgment of the relative sizes of near objects at various distances is important for a variety of occupational visual tasks. This study involved matching the apparent size of each of a series of standard targets, placed at distances between 0.2 and 3 m and all subtending 2° at the eye, with a comparison target of ...

Size-distance perception in preschool children

Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1979
Abstract Children between three and six years of age matched the “apparent” and “real” size of familiar and unfamiliar objects 3, 6, or 9 feet away. Prior to the experimental sessions, the children were divided into two groups: (a) those who could distinguish the phenomenal from the real sizes of the arcs in the Jastrow illusion (the “Realists”) and (
