| dc.description.abstract | This book is a translation of “Psychologie de la perception” published by the Presses
de l’Université Laval and has the same name as a course offered at the School of
Psychology of Laval University, Québec. It is not a coincidence; the book was written
for students of this course. Over the years, whether at Laurentian University a
few decades ago or at Laval University since 1996, I learned a lot from the questions
and needs for clarifi cation voiced by the students. The book is partly a response to
the requested explanations regarding some of the main phenomena, techniques, and
principles encountered in the fi eld of perception.
I would like to thank Anne-Marie Grondin who produced numerous illustrations
contained in this book; Tsuyoshi Kuroda, expert in psychoacoustics, who provided
many tips and some fi gures in the preparation of Chaps. 2 and 3; and Daniel Voyer
of the University of New Brunswick for his fi ne revision of the content. | en_US |
