Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Shape constancy refers to the tendency of objects to appear stable and unchanging, despite changes in their size, shape, and orientation relative to the viewer. This is why a door still appears as a rectangle, even when viewed from different angles or distances. Depth cues and retinal disparity help us perceive depth in the visual field, but they do not account for the stability of an object's shape over different viewpoints. Linear constancy is not a recognized term in psychology, and therefore, is not a relevant answer choice.
