Econometric Views (EViews)01:29

Econometric Views (EViews)

591
Econometric Views, often stylized as EViews, is a package that merges statistical analysis with econometric studies. It is designed to provide tools for time series analysis, forecasting, and econometric model simulation. The software originated from MicroTSP software and has evolved significantly since its inception in 1981. The history of EViews is marked by a continuous effort to enhance its computational speed and user interface. It was initially developed for large computing systems but...

Cranial Bones: Lateral View01:27

Cranial Bones: Lateral View

4.6K
The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

Revisionist Views of Adolescent and Adult Cognition

316
A revisionist approach to Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development has brought new insights that challenge and reinterpret his established ideas. Piaget proposed that the formal operational stage, emerging in adolescence, represents the culmination of cognitive maturity. During this stage, individuals are said to develop abstract thinking, engage in systematic problem-solving, and show a form of egocentrism, believing others are as preoccupied with their behavior as they are...

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View01:14

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View

5.2K
The superior view of the cranium shows the frontal and paired parietal bones.
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...

Electric Field of a Non Uniformly Charged Sphere01:22

Electric Field of a Non Uniformly Charged Sphere

2.3K
Gauss's law states that the electric flux through any closed surface equals the net charge enclosed within the surface. This law is beneficial for determining the expressions for the electric field for a particular charge distribution if the electric flux is known.
Consider a non-uniformly charged sphere, for which the density of charge depends only on the distance from a point in space and not on the direction. Such a sphere has a spherically symmetrical charge distribution. Here, the electric...

Area of Science:

  • Visual perception
  • Psychology of vision
  • Representational geometry

Background:

  • The concept of the 'viewing sphere' (Euclid) and 'optic array' (Gibson) describes the visual field surrounding an observer.
  • Current photographic techniques present the viewing sphere as a pictorial object, separating the observer from the depicted space.
  • This raises questions about the intuitive use of pictorial representations and the ability to mentally inhabit depicted visual spaces.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate whether human observers can intuitively 'mentally step into the interior' of a pictorial viewing sphere.
  • To explore the limitations of current photographic techniques in conveying immersive visual experiences.

Main Methods:

  • A short experiment was conducted to assess observer's ability to engage with pictorial representations.
  • The study focused on the intuitive use of photographic techniques and their relation to the viewing sphere concept.

Main Results:

  • The experiment indicated that observers are generally unable to mentally enter the depicted space of a pictorial viewing sphere.
  • The findings suggest a fundamental limitation in how humans process pictorial representations of visual fields.

Conclusions:

  • Human observers cannot intuitively 'mentally step into' pictorial representations of the viewing sphere.
  • The inability stems from the inherent nature of pictorial objects and the eye's inability to see itself within such representations.
