AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Interposition is a monocular cue that occurs when one object obscures another, which causes the object that is partially covered to appear more distant. Because we only see part of what we expect, we interpret the object that is partially covered as being further away.

Detailed explanation-2: -These monocular cues include: relative size. interposition. linear perspective.

Detailed explanation-3: -Interposition is a visual signal that an object is closer than the ones behind it because the closer object covers part of the farther object. For example, you know that your keyboard is closer than your desk because you see the desk around the keyboard.

Detailed explanation-4: -Monocular cues include relative size (distant objects subtend smaller visual angles than near objects), texture gradient, occlusion, linear perspective, contrast differences, and motion parallax.
