Perceptual Constancies - SIZE EDITION

                      PERCEPTUAL CONSTANCIES

What is size constancy?

Size constancy refers to our ability to see objects as maintaining the same size even when our distance from them makes them appear larger or smaller.

And what would be an example of this you may ask?

When you are standing in a long hallway, perhaps a school hallway, and one of your friends is standing closer to you than the other the one closest will appear larger when in fact they are the same size.
