Pareidolia

幻想性視錯覺(Pareidolia)是一種心理現(xiàn)象，主要表現(xiàn)為將模糊、隨機(jī)的圖像賦予實際意義，比如看到像動物的云朵、像中國地圖的石頭、像人臉的樹干紋理等等。簡單來說就是會把一些沒有生命的物體看成有臉的生物，最典型的就是汽車車頭，每次走在路上都會看到無數(shù)個各種各樣的臉飛馳在馬路上，個人比較鐘愛的公交車的臉，由于車燈在車頭比較靠下的位置，因此看起來一幅欠扁的樣子。當(dāng)然也有很可愛的公交車臉。

Can you see the man in the moon? Learn about pareidolia on this Moment of Science.

Pareidolia is a term from psychology that refers to the tendency in people to perceive a meaningful pattern in a vague(模糊不清的，朦朧的) stimulus(刺激).

Psychologists note that once your brain has assigned a meaningful pattern to something, it holds onto that interpretation(解釋). But there’s no face on the moon.

East Indian people see a rabbit on the moon; Samoans say it’s a woman weaving; Chinese people see a monkey pounding(搗碎) rice. Because of the previous assignment of a different meaningful pattern, it’s as hard for a Chinese person to see the face at first as for you to see the monkey.

Any time you see a person in a wallpaper(壁紙)stain(污點，污跡), a ship in the clouds, or a face on Mars, you’re experiencing pareidolia.
