Final Jeopardy
100

Part of the eye which helps focus on objects with its clear and flexible parts.

What is the lens?

100

Rods are associated with what 2 functions. 

What is black and white and peripheral vision?

100

Fovea at the center of the retina is associated with this function. 

What is color?

100

Theory suggests how colors are perceived after the initial detection by the retina and fovea. Colors are paired in opposing pairs: blue, yellow; red-green etc.

What is opponent process theory?

200

Back of the eye in which cones and rods (photoreceptors) turn light into neural signals.

What is the retina?

200

If a stimulus activates the edge of the retina where rods are, this cannot be seen.

What is color?

200

Concentrated at the center of the fovea are these parts which help with color.

What are cones?

200

Explains how light stimulates one of three cones (blue, green, red) and allow the sensation of all colors ROYGBIV 

What is trichromatic theory? Young-Helmholtz theory?

300

The part of the eye which is at the center of the retina.

What is the fovea?

300

3 colors associated with the retina (fovea) 

What are red, green, blue?

300

The small portion of radiation in the universe that can be seen.

What is visible light?

300

Red is associated with this type of wave.

What is long frequency?

300

In order for case studies to be generalizable to a target population this needs to be done. 

What is random sampling? 

400

White part, or "shell" of the eye.

What is sclera?

400
Research conducted in which random assignment to a treatment group and a placebo group is done to determine whether retina functions can cause damage by certain light exposures.

What is an experiment?

400

2 dimensions associated with light waves.

What is length and amplitude?

400

Blue is associated with this type of wave.

What is short frequency?

400

This is necessary for studies on vision and memory to be replicated by other psychologist and scientist; in other words the use of precise and quantifiable language. 

What is operational definitions?

500

The colored sphincter part of your eye which controls amount of light entering the eye.

What is the Iris?

500

A study which looks at 2 age groups to analyze how photoreceptors of firefighters (young and old) are impacted by exposure to smoke and heat. 

What is a cross-sectional study?

500

Frequency of a light wave helps in sensing this aspcet of sight.

What is color? What is hue?

500

The intensity of color is determined by this. 

What is amplitude?

500
Participants of an experiment must have equal chance of being part of either treatment or control group is known as this. 

What is random assignment? 

600

Front of the eye, acts like a windshield and protector of the eye.

What is the Cornea?

600
A study which looks at the exposure of sawdust, debris and other hazardous material on the cornea over a period of many years. 

What is longitudinal study?

600

Amplitude of a wave is associated with sensing this of color.

What is brightness?

600

Dull or not so bright colors have this type of amplitude.

What is low amplitude?

700

Part of the eye in which light enters through a hole.

What is the Pupil?

700
A study showed a strong coefficient between participants showing the more natural daylight exposure the less anxious feelings felt throughout the following day is an example of this relationship. 

What is negative correlation?

700

Bright neon intense colors are associated with this type of wave.

What is high amplitude?
