1. Schema: In psychology and cognitive science, a schema describes a pattern of thought or behavior that organizes categories of information and the relationships among them.
2. Context effect: Depending on the context you will give a different answer. Perception depends on context. 3. Selective attention: What you are paying attention to is what you will see. 4. Pain theory: 4 Types of sensory receptors (heat, cold, touch, pain) they only respond to one type of sensation 5. Pattern theory: A single nerve responds to each type of sensation and creates a code for pain types.6. Gate control theory: Non-painful stimuli can block the transmission of painful stimuli Explain why distractors work. 7. Synesthesia: when perception is triggered by a sensation of a different sense. 8. Misinformation effect: occurs when misleading information has distorted someones memory of an event. 9. Linear perspective: Seem farther away because rows converge. Our brain reads convergence of lines as distance. 10. Interposition: When an object appears to block the view of another we assume that the blocking object is in a specific position relative to distance.
