The published volume includes the abstracts of the invited addresses, symposia, oral and poster presentations, numbering over 9,000 separate contributions and creating an invaluable overview of the discipline of psychological science around the world today.

This volume combines the classical fields of perception research with the major theoretical attitudes of today's research, distinguishing between experience- versus performance-related approaches, transformational versus interactional approaches, and approaches that rely on the processing versus discovery of information. Perception is separated into two parts. The first part deals with basic processes and mechanisms, and discusses early vision and later, yet still basic, vision. The second covers complex achievements with accounts of perceptual constancies and the perception of patterns, objects, events, and actions.
