    This document lists key terms related to sensation and perception including concepts like bottom-up and top-down processing, transduction, sensory adaptation, signal detection theory, perceptual constancy, Gestalt psychology, and parallel processing. It also lists anatomical structures involved in vision like the retina, optic nerve, and fovea as well as theories of color vision and hearing concepts like frequency and amplitude. Finally, it mentions important figures in the fields of psychophysics and neuroscience like Fechner, Weber, Hubel and Wiesel.
