  2. Poise (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poise_(unit)

    The poise is often used with the metric prefix centi-because the viscosity of water at 20 °C (standard conditions for temperature and pressure) is almost exactly 1 centipoise. [3] A centipoise is one hundredth of a poise, or one millipascal-second (mPa⋅s) in SI units (1 cP = 10 −3 Pa⋅s = 1 mPa⋅s). [4] The CGS symbol for the centipoise ...

    A group of researchers at Harvard University has published an alternative set of images that they claim to be comparable to the IAPS in 2016. [19] The OASIS image database consists of 900 images that have been rated on valence and arousal by a sample of US-Americans recruited via amazon mechanical Turk. As opposed to the IAPS, all OASIS images ...

  4. Image schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_schema

    Other influences include Max Wertheimer's gestalt structure theory and Kant's account of schemas in categorization, as well as studies in experimental psychology on the mental rotation of images. In addition to the dissertation on over by Brugman, Lakoff's use of image schema theory also drew extensively on Talmy and Langacker's theories of ...

  5. Viscosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity

    The centipoise is convenient because the viscosity of water at 20 °C is about 1 cP, and one centipoise is equal to the SI millipascal second (mPa·s). The SI unit of kinematic viscosity is square meter per second (m 2 /s), whereas the CGS unit for kinematic viscosity is the stokes (St, or cm 2 ·s −1 = 0.0001 m 2 ·s −1 ), named after Sir ...

  6. Vividness of Visual Imagery Questionnaire - Wikipedia

    The procedure can be carried out with eyes closed and/or with eyes open. Total score on the VVIQ is a predictor of the person's performance in a variety of cognitive, motor, and creative tasks. For example, Marks (1973) reported that high vividness scores correlate with the accuracy of recall of coloured photographs.

  7. Allport's Scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allport's_scale

    Examples include the Cambodian genocide, the Final Solution in Nazi Germany, the Rwandan genocide, the Armenian genocide, and the genocide of the Hellenes. This scale should not be confused with the Religious Orientation Scale of Allport and Ross (1967), which is a measure of the maturity of an individual's religious conviction.

  8. Multistable perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multistable_perception

    Examples of visually ambiguous patterns. From top to bottom: Necker cube, Schroeder stairs and a figure that can be interpreted as black or white arrows. Multistable perception (or bistable perception) is a perceptual phenomenon in which an observer experiences an unpredictable sequence of spontaneous subjective changes.

  9. Photo psychology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photo_Psychology

    Photo psychology or photopsychology is a specialty within psychology dedicated to identifying and analyzing relationships between psychology and photography. [1] Photopsychology traces several points of contact between photography and psychology.
