Background: Bistable images (or ambiguous images) have the chance to be interpreted in two different ways. Owing to its physical features, this type of images offers two independentvisual perceptswhich are associated with top-down and bottom-up modulating perceiving processes. It has been also stated that tones of voice can operate as semantic modulators in such a way that the voice itself can exert a top-down influence on the way an observer perceives a bistable visual stimulus, regardless of the understanding of the speech (words meaning) that operates as a modulating factor.

This study explores the concept of children’s perception toward activities. The study took place at a nursery setting in Hull in the UK.

It then goes on to clarify the various ways to communicate with children that allows for their participation and free expression of children’s opinions, feelings etc.

Background: Bistable images are visual stimuli that have the particular characteristic of being interpreted in two different ways. Due to their physical characteristics, these images, while being observed, encourage the observer to make perceptual alternations, in such a way that it is never possible to perceive the two possible percepts simultaneously. The defining lines and contours of a bistable image, along with all its characteristics, can influence its perception, as well as the areas of the image that are observed.

The arrangement of the trial in absentia is the Corruption Crime Act (PTPK Law) with the concept of examination in court cases of corruption without the presence of the accused. The press point in absentia is saving state wealth, so it needs to be balanced with a comprehensive and integrated asset grab mechanism with other arrangements both domestically and internationally. However, in reality it was used as an opportunity for perpetrators of corruption to not return the corrupted state money.
