summary |
In this study, the perceptions of on a computer screen displayed street photographs, were compared with the experiences of their real-life counterparts. Using a semantic descriptive method, SMB, experimental subjects assessed eight urban environments, presented both in field and on computer screen. Assessments were made in different light and seasonal conditions. It was shown that the perception of street pictures, presented on computer screen, did correspond well with the experience of the outdoor originals in most of the used semantic descriptive dimensions. Discrepancies between the two presentations were generally small and comparable with the minor perceptual differences between the various light conditions. Deviations could also be ascribed to certain non-perceptual factors, like the subjects' backgrounds or the environments' cognitive peculiarities. The findings indicated also possible improvement of the computer presentation technique by widening the pictures' informational content.
