Psychology QUESTION #9800
Question 1
When observing a distant object, we typically judge its size based on:
  • Object size
  • Perspective size
  • A compromise between object size and perspective size
  • Retinal size✔️
Correct Answer Explanation
Retinal size — the actual image size projected on the retina — is the fundamental visual signal for size judgment. Through size constancy, the brain also uses distance cues to correct perception, but the retinal image is the starting signal.
