The author reflects on the aspects of human perception. These
properties are fundamental that most human factors people take it for
granted that everybody understands them. The author outlines a
Resumo short explanation of human perception. He observes that if a person
can not tell the difference, it does not matter. He also mentions that
people perceive things more readily when they change, rather than
wen they are constant. Finally, he focuses on the dynamic range of
human senses.

Resumo A common-sense assumption concerning visual perception states
that brightness and darkness cannot coexist at a given spatial
location. One corollary of this assumption is that achromatic colors,
 or perceived grey shades, are contained in a one-dimensional (1-D)
space varying from bright to dark. The results of many previous
psychophysical studies suggest, by contrast, that achromatic colors
are represented as points in a color space composed of two or more
perceptual dimensions. The nature of these perceptual dimensions,
however, presently remains unclear. Here we provide direct evidence
that brightness and darkness form the dimensions of a two-
dimensional (2-D) achromatic color space. This color space may play
a role in the representation of object surfaces viewed against natural
backgrounds, which simultaneously induce both brightness and
darkness signals. Our 2-D model generalizes to the chromatic
dimensions of color perception, indicating that redness and
greenness (blueness and yellowness) also form perceptual
dimensions. Collectively, these findings suggest that human color
space is composed of six dimensions, rather than the conventional
three. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Resumo Abstract: Previous research has shown that irrelevant sounds can
facilitate the perception of visual apparent motion. Here the
effectiveness of a single sound to facilitate motion perception was
investigated in three experiments. Observers were presented with
two discrete lights temporally separated by stimulus onset
asynchronies from 0 to 350ms. After each trial, observers classified
their impression of the stimuli using a categorisation system. A short
sound presented temporally (and spatially) midway between the
lights facilitated the impression of motion relative to baseline (lights
 without sound), whereas a sound presented either before the first or
after the second light or simultaneously with the lights did not affect
motion impression. The facilitation effect also occurred with sound
presented far from the visual display, as well as with continuous-
sound that was started with the first light and terminated with the
second light. No facilitation of visual motion perception occurred if the
sound was part of a tone sequence that allowed for intramodal
perceptual grouping of the auditory stimuli prior to the critical
audiovisual stimuli. Taken together, the findings are consistent with a
low-level audiovisual integration approach in which the perceptual
system merges temporally proximate sound and light stimuli, thereby
provoking the impression of a single multimodal moving object.
