Abstract: In this experiment we will show the subjects a number of shape design images and ask them to rate these on a simple scale. These ratings will be compared to a computer model in order to investigate how well the model relates to individual perception. Upon completion of the image ratings, participants will be required to complete a short questionnaire. Participants in the survey will receive a $10 honorarium.
