What is the feature detection theory?

A theory of perception that proposes the existence of feature detectors, cortical cells that fire only when we see certain visual stimuli such as shapes, colors of light or movement.


What theory of perception proposes that detection of stimuli depends on a variety of factors?

Signal detection theory


What is a signal detection threshold?

Detection theory allows one to quantify the ability to discern between information bearing patterns and random patterns that causes confusion in the patterns. In electronics, detection theory is often called signal recovery.


Which theory emphasizes that personal expectations and motivations influence the level of absolute thresholds?

signal detection theory

What is the signal detection theory?

a theory predicting how and when we detect the presence of a faint stimulus ("signal") amid background stimulation ("noise"). Assumes there is no signal absolute threshold and detection depends partly on a person's experience, expectations, motivation, and level of fatigue.


What theory claims that a struggle for power is a basic feature of human existence?

conflict theory


What does signal detection theory add to the ideas of sensory thresholds?

Signal detection theory applies when signal detection is more important than signal fidelity. Safety is an example of an imperative that will influence whether a sensory threshold is low or high. The penalty of a missed detection vs a false detection. Radar is designed with this in mind. Safety is not the main imperative in all biological systems, where fidelity is more important. C=capacity of channel R=information to be transmitted E=errors When R>C the problem is signal detection, and E are inevitable (see Constant False Alarm Rate) When R<C the problem is signal fidelity (eg internet) and E rate increases as R approaches C.
