Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”)
• Monochromat - person who needs only one wavelength to match any color
• Dichromat - person who needs only two wavelengths to match any color
• Anomalous trichromat - needs three wavelengths in different proportions than normal trichromat
• Unilateral dichromat - trichromatic vision in one eye and dichromatic in other

Color Experience for Monochromats
• Monochromats have:– A very rare hereditary condition
– Only rods and no functioning cones
– Ability to perceive only in white, gray, and black tones• Univariance
– True color-blindness
– Poor visual acuity– Very sensitive eyes to bright light

Dichromats – only two cone types
Dichromats are missing one of the three cone systems, so there are three types of dichromats.

1. Protanopia affects 1% of males and .02% of females
• They are missing the long-wavelength pigment
• Individuals see short-wavelengths as blue
• Neutral point (gray) occurs at 492nm
• Above neutral point, they see yellow

Color Processing in the Cortex
• There is no single module for color perception
– Cortical cells in V1, V2, and V4 respond to some wavelengths or have opponent responses
fMRI experiments on color vision show responses to color all over the visual cortex, but particularly strong responses in area V4.
![Page 9: Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”) - UW Courses Web ...courses.washington.edu/psy333/lecture_pdfs/Week7_Day2.pdf · Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”) • Monochromat](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022013110/5cca594688c9937c048e1c79/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
V4 seems to be necessary for color vision. Damage to V4 leads to cerebral achromatopsia – complete color blindness, even though the cones are normal.

Cues to Depth Perception• Oculomotor - cues based on sensing the position of the eyes and muscle tension
• Monocular - cues that rely on only one eye.
• Binocular – cues that rely on both eyes.
![Page 12: Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”) - UW Courses Web ...courses.washington.edu/psy333/lecture_pdfs/Week7_Day2.pdf · Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”) • Monochromat](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022013110/5cca594688c9937c048e1c79/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Cues to Depth Perception• Oculomotor - cues based on sensing the position of the eyes and muscle tension
1. Convergence – knowing the inward movement of the eyes when we focus on nearby objects
2. Accommodation – feedback from changing the focus of lens.
![Page 13: Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”) - UW Courses Web ...courses.washington.edu/psy333/lecture_pdfs/Week7_Day2.pdf · Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”) • Monochromat](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022013110/5cca594688c9937c048e1c79/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Monocular - cues that come from one eye. Two categories:
Cues to Depth Perception
1. Pictorial cues - sources of depth information that come from 2-D images, such as pictures
2. Movement-produced cues
![Page 14: Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”) - UW Courses Web ...courses.washington.edu/psy333/lecture_pdfs/Week7_Day2.pdf · Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”) • Monochromat](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022013110/5cca594688c9937c048e1c79/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Occlusion - when one object partially covers another
Relative height - objects that are higher in the field of vision are more distant
Pictorial Cues
![Page 15: Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”) - UW Courses Web ...courses.washington.edu/psy333/lecture_pdfs/Week7_Day2.pdf · Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”) • Monochromat](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022013110/5cca594688c9937c048e1c79/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Pictorial Cues
• Relative size - when objects are equal size, the closer one will take up more of your visual field
• Familiar size - distance information based on our knowledge of object size
• Perspective convergence - parallel lines (in real world) appear to come together in the distance
![Page 16: Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”) - UW Courses Web ...courses.washington.edu/psy333/lecture_pdfs/Week7_Day2.pdf · Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”) • Monochromat](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022013110/5cca594688c9937c048e1c79/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Pictorial Cues• Atmospheric perspective
- distant objects have lower contrast and have a blue tint
![Page 17: Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”) - UW Courses Web ...courses.washington.edu/psy333/lecture_pdfs/Week7_Day2.pdf · Color Deficiency (“Color Blindness”) • Monochromat](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022013110/5cca594688c9937c048e1c79/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Texture gradient - equally spaced elements are more closely packed as distance increases
Pictorial Cues

Motion-Produced Cues
• Motion parallax - close objects in direction of movement glide rapidly past but objects in the distance appear to move slowly
• Deletion and accretion - objects are covered or uncovered as we move relative to them
– Also called occlusion-in-motion
