Abstract:
The present study examined the role of pictorials in environmental safety signs. Thirty subjects created thirty signs on the computer with the aid of a technician. Subjects had different sign components available to them (e.g., signal words, verbal statements and pictorials). There were three different pictorial conditions in this study: none, generic (e.g., triangle with exclamation point), and specific (i.e., the pictorial's content was related to the hazard being described). Examination of the constructed signs suggests that the primary purpose of pictorials is to convey information and not simply to attract attention—specific pictorials were used most of the time that they were available, while generic pictorials were used very infrequently. Specific pictorials were generally used in a redundant manner—that is, they tended to be added to existing signs rather than being used to replace other, non-pictorial information. Finally, the use of specific pictorials affected the size of other, non-pictorial components. This study suggests that pictorials are an important component in environmental safety signs, but only to the extent that they serve some functional purpose related to the sign being constructed.

Abstract:
Background The World Health Organization’s (WHO) Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) Health Warnings Database is an online, publicly available resource created for countries to upload and share pictorial health warnings for tobacco packaging. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the extent to which the database is used by countries for the sharing of pictorial warnings. Methods The study’s sample included parties to the FCTC who required graphic health warning labels on cigarette packaging from. Those countries were categorized as having a low, middle, and high Socio-Demographic Index (SDI). The Health Warnings Database was then analyzed for those countries’ unique pictorial images, as well as the number of pictorials that were shared between countries. Results Of the 110 countries that required pictorial warnings on cigarette packaging, only 53 (48%) voluntarily contributed pictorials to the database, with most of those (53%) being high SDI-level countries. There were 342 unique pictorials on the database, with 62 images posted by seven countries that were used by 13 other countries. Conclusion While sharing was evident from the database, there remains a need for more countries to upload the pictorials to the database. There is also a need to expand the database to include alternative tobacco products, such as waterpipe tobacco and e-cigarettes.

Abstract:
The present study assessed the comprehensibility and quality of warning pictorials in the presence and absence of explicit context. Context was provided by a photograph and a verbal description of an environmental scene in which the pictorial might appear. A total of 248 individuals performed a comprehension test on a randomly-assigned pictorial from each of three referent categories (Keep Out, Electrical Shock, and Do Not Dig). Following this task, 185 participants were shown five pictorials (four others plus the one they had seen) associated with each of the three referent categories and then rated and ranked them on their quality to convey the referent message effectively. Results indicated that the context manipulation enhanced comprehension for pictorials two out of three referent categories. Confidence intervals indicated that comprehension levels of all the Electrical Shock symbols would fall within the ranges specified by ISO's 67% and ANSI's 85% comprehension criteria. Three of the Do Not Dig pictorials and none of the Keep Out pictorials fell within the acceptable ISO and ANSI comprehension criteria. Statistically significant average point biserial correlations were obtained between the comprehension and quality scores for each referent category. Implications for warning pictorial test and design are discussed.

Abstract:
The present study assessed the comprehensibility of pharmaceutical pictorials that are often seen on prescription medication bottles. A total of 30 individuals with mental retardation living in semi-independent environments were asked to provide responses concerning the pictorial connotation. Results indicated that only three of the 42 pictorials presented were within the acceptable range of the ISO 67% comprehension criterion. These pictorials connoted “take with water”, “do not drink alcohol”, and “poison”. None achieved the ANSI 85% comprehension criterion. Furthermore, there were no statistically significant differences in comprehension between those who were taking the medication with bottles that displayed the corresponding pictorial and those who did not. The forensic implications and relevance concerning hazard communication are discussed.

Abstract:
SignificanceResearch shows that pictorial warning labels for cigarettes are more effective than text-only warnings, and preliminary work suggests that pictorial warnings could also be considered for electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes). Pictorial warnings may be important for maximising their effectiveness among young people and enhancing the salience of the single nicotine addiction warning required for e-cigarettes to date in the USA. This study collected pilot data about the perceived effectiveness of draft e-cigarette pictorial warnings.MethodsParticipants were 876 young adults (ages 18–29) recruited through Amazon Mechanical Turk who completed an online e-cigarette survey in 2018. Participants viewed and ranked five versions of the same e-cigarette nicotine addiction warning message—four pictorial and one text-only–on their perceived noticeability, likelihood of capturing young people’s attention, memorability, relevance to the addiction warning text and overall effectiveness in warning people about e-cigarette risks. For each outcome, presentation of the five warning versions was randomised. Pictorials included symbolic images of risk and addiction, and of priority audiences for the warning (ie, young people).ResultsFor all outcomes, pictorial warnings were ranked higher than the text-only warning, and the warning using a yellow triangle caution icon was ranked highest for all outcomes. The text-only warning was ranked as the least likely to be effective for all four outcomes in which it was assessed. Trends were similar for current e-cigarette users and non-users.ConclusionsFuture research should assess perceptions and the appropriateness of pictorial imagery for e-cigarette warnings and test their efficacy against text-only warnings experimentally.

Abstract:
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is an upper-extremity disorder that can cause chronic pain and disability. Although CTS can arise from a wide variety of repetitive tasks with awkward hand/arm positioning, a large percentage of cases are attributed to, or exacerbated by, computer input devices such as keyboards. One potential way to reduce the development of CTS in keyboard users is to warn them about the disease's early symptoms so that corrective actions might be taken before the disease becomes more severe. The present research systematically examines one of the components of a potential CTS warning, pictorial symbols. Participants examined a set of 12 ANSI Z535 style warnings with one, two or four pictorials. They then evaluated them on their perceived effectiveness, specifically on their ability to inform and motivate users to use correct arm and hand posture to avoid further CTS development. The evaluations involved estimating the percentage of people that would comply with the pictorial message if it were located on or near a keyboard. Individual pictorial symbols in a top or a side view of the hands, arms, and wrists, depicted the incorrect posture overlaid with either an “X” (cross-out) or “prohibition symbol” (circle-slash) or the correct posture with no overlay. Warnings with four pictorials (with both postures and views) were given significantly higher evaluations than warnings with one or two symbols. In the one and two pictorial conditions, the top view was preferred over the side view. The two prohibition symbols, shown together with views of the incorrect postures, were perceived to be better than the views of correct postures (with no prohibition symbol). The two prohibition symbol conditions did not differ. The results could serve as a partial basis for the development of a complete CTS warning that also includes textual information. Implications for the benefits of multi-symbol warning messages are offered.

Abstract:
This systematic review was conducted to provide inspiration on the development of a learning model for vocabulary learning via the use of pictorials, as well as the omissions and gaps in the synthesized literature on the topic, especially with regards to the use of such a model for remote learning. The significance of this particular study lies in the affirmation of whether this pictorial-based vocabulary learning model is a viable solution for the necessity of remote learning. There are a total of three research questions, which are (1) What are the benefits of developing a pictorial-based vocabulary model for learning vocabulary? (2) What are the challenges in the integration and application of digital technology for remote learning and learning enhancement? and (3) How effective is using pictorial elements in enhancing students’ learning of vocabulary? Two main databases – ResearchGate and Scopus – were explored for data collection. A total of 16 studies of relevance to the topic of investigation were retained for further analysis out of more than 50 studies after the strict process of removing duplicates and scrutinizing the abstracts for a suitable level of relevance. To account for the derivation of the various themes under this review, the method of a thematic analysis was preferred. The emerging themes being analyzed are: (1) The Development of a Pictorial-Based Learning Model for Vocabulary Learning (2) The Integration and Application of Digital Technology for Remote Learning and Learning Enhancement (3) The Effectiveness of Using Pictorial Elements on Enhancing Students’ Learning of Vocabulary.

Abstract:
Warnings with pictorial symbols are often used because symbols tend to be attention getting. If a text message included in a warning detains readers in a hazardous location, this text message may keep readers in harm's way. Therefore, warnings comprised only of pictorials may be the best solution in some situations. The purpose of this study was to evaluate a pictorial as the sole source of warning information. Eighty-five participants were asked about their comprehension of a warning symbol, both without and with contextual information. Results indicated that 96% of participants over 16 years old were able to comprehend the warning, which exceeds the ANSI standard of an 85% symbol comprehension rate.

Abstract:
SUMMARYClassifications of pictures and pictorial knowledge are presented. Pictorial knowledge is divided into three classes – angular pictorial knowledge, side pictorial knowledge, and angular and side pictorial knowledge. A block diagram of these three pictorial knowledge classes and a pictorial knowledge transformation module is also presented with illustrative examples. Pictorial semantic networks which in terms of pictorial nodes, property nodes, “is a” links, “has property” links, and “if and only if” links are introduced. Transitivity, generalization, specialization, inheritance hierarchy, and knowledge transformation properties are stated and illustrated by examples. Triangular, quadrangular, and polygonal knowledge representation using pictorial semantic networks are presented. The concepts of deducible property nodes are also presented with illustrative examples. Additional facts can be established from pictorial semantic networks. Thus, pictorial semantic networks are a useful way to represent pictorial knowledge in domains that use well-established taxonomies to simplify problem solving in pictorial information systems. Pictorial semantic networks offer what appears to be a fertile field for future study. The results may have useful applications in knowledge representation, expert systems, artificial intelligence, knowledge - based systems, pictorial information systems and related areas.

Abstract:
Motion information contributes weakly to veridical depth perception of real stimuli. To test whether background pattern might enhance veridicality, observers judged the orientations in depth of pictorially matched trapezoidal and rectangular surfaces, with and without a rectangular grid of vertical stripes in a frontal plane behind surfaces; viewing was monocular with lateral head motions of 15 cm extent. The grid did not enhance veridicality; instead, surfaces actually or pictorially slanted to the frontal plane were judged more slanted with the grid present. In a second experiment, observers were static or moved through 30 cm; the grid had little effect during stasis, but again elicited judgments of greater slant during motion, despite broadly veridical responses without the grid. Results from actual slant are interpreted in terms of motion contrast and suggest that motion information may be important in conveying differences in orientation. Results from pictorial slant suggest that the influence of pictorial information increases as its complexity increases.

Abstract:
Behind every good advertisement there is a creative concept, a Big Idea. In contrast to the countless number of ads, a small number of patterns of effective communication (idea templates) have been uncovered, which are invariant across content and context. In this thesis, we investigate the formalization of idea templates and use it as the basis for building computational means of generating ideas. We present a computational approach of generating one type of ideas, pictorial metaphor. A two-stage approach is proposed and implemented: Stage 1 finds concepts that are salient in a given property; Stage 2 evaluates the aptness of the concepts found as metaphor vehicles. The ideas generated by our approach were evaluated against past successful ads.

Abstract:
The objective of my research is to revive and practice the art of traditional pictorial maps in 3D cartographic visualization. I have chosen to create both graphical and statistical pictorial maps which can be used for the purpose of tourism and data representation respectively. Some traditional hand-drawn and sculptural pictorial maps of famous artists have been picked out to start as a base for my work. The goal was to recreate or imitate the style, character and features of these traditional hand-drawn and sculptural maps with 3D computer graphics and to analyze how effectively 3D tools can be used to communicate map information. I also wanted to explore ways to make these maps interactive on the Web and have them accessible to a large number of viewers. The results show a number of interactive 3D pictorial maps of different countries and continents. These maps are initially built with Maya, a 3D modeling software, and converted into web pages using the Viewpoint Technology. For statistical maps, Mel scripts have been used in Maya to take input from the user and change the shape of models accordingly to represent data. These maps are interactive and navigable and are designed to be easily accessible on the Web.

Abstract:
Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2001.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 51-53).
This thesis presents a statistical framework for object recognition. The framework is motivated by the pictorial structure models introduced by Fischler and Elschlager nearly 30 years ago. The basic idea is to model an object by a collection of parts arranged in a deformable configuration. The appearance of each part is modeled separately, and the deformable configuration is represented by spring-like connections between pairs of parts. These models allow for qualitative descriptions of visual appearance, and are suitable for generic recognition problems. The problem of detecting an object in an image and the problem of learning an object model using training examples are naturally formulated under a statistical approach. We present efficient algorithms to solve these problems in our framework. We demonstrate our techniques by training models to represent faces and human bodies. The models are then used to locate the corresponding objects in novel images.

Abstract:
Cos'è il "Pictorial Turn"? Il seguente elaborato analizza la produzione scientifica di uno dei padri fondatori dei visual studies americani, W.J.T. Mitchell, al fine di sottolineare i prodromi di questa elaborazione ed evidenziarne gli esiti. Partendo dallo studio dell'arte "composita" di William Blake, Mitchell si è interrogato sul rapporto tra parola e immagine, l'"imagetext", appoggiandosi alla semiotica di Charles Pierce e allo studio dei linguaggi di Goodman, nonché allo storico dell'arte Gombrich e al filosofo Lessing. L'esito è che stiamo vivendo un "Pictorial Turn", che non è solamente una constatazione del fatto che esistono sistemi di simboli che non adottano il linguaggio come paradigma di significato, ma la consapevolezza che esistono epoche nella storia dell'umanità in cui l'immagine è entrata prepotentemente e, forse, anche consapevolmente nella vita degli uomini. L'attenzione per l'immagine del filosofo Ludwig Wittgenstein e la scienza (iconologia) di cui Panofsky è il massimo esponente, hanno reso l'immagine un campo di studio particolarmente variegato. La differenza tra "image" e "picture" è fondamentale per comprendere che l'immagine non si esaurisce nel supporto ma regna altrove nella nostra coscienza tanto da suscitare reazioni psicologiche e da diventare entità a sé stante al punto di chiederci: "what do pictures want?". Guardando le immagini come entità sovralinguistiche, la nostra alfabetizzazione di fronte a esse veicola verso un'analisi del reale e dell'attualità non mediata solamente dal linguaggio ma altrettanto efficace e autentica.

Abstract:
This work is an investigation into the analytical debate on pictorial representation and the theory of pictorial art. My main concern are a critical exposition of the questions raised by the idea that it is resemblance to depicted objects that explains pictorial representation and the investigation of the phenomenon of abstract painting from an analytical point of view in relation to the debate on depiction. The first part is dedicated to a survey of the analytical debate on depiction, with special attention to the fortunes and misfortunes of the resemblance theory of depiction. In the first chapter I give an outline of the main contemporary theories on offer, contextualised within an historical background that stretches from Plato to Descartes. I have decided to focus on the theory of resemblance more than on other approaches on depiction, because much of my research is dedicated to an analysis and implementation of one of the theories that have recently sought to re-discover the resemblance paradigm, although with certain important modifications. Namely, the second chapter is dedicated to the exposition of John Hyman’s basic resemblance theory of depiction, to the elucidation of its presuppositions and to the discussion of some criticisms and objections that the theory has raised. The third and the fourth chapter are dedicated to the implementation of Hyman’s theory in relation to the phenomenon of abstract painting. There are two peculiarities about Hyman’s theory: first, it is in counter-tendency in comparison with all the other accounts of depiction on offer, in that it does not need to conceive of pictorial representation as of representation of particulars or kinds of objects that we can easily identify. Second, it is a theory that gives art a prominent role: Hyman illustrates his claims with many examples taken from the history of figurative art. The second part of my work is inspired by the idea that the basic resemblance theory can be applied to abstract paintings as well. Developing an analysis of abstract painting from an analytical point of view is a task that very few authors have tried to accomplish so far – as far as I am aware. However, it is evident that the task abstract painters have set themselves is interestingly akin to the task philosophers try to accomplish when arguing about depiction. It is widely agreed that one of the main topics of contemporary art is art itself and that one of the main topics of abstract painting is the art of painting itself, the art of producing pictures, the exploration of its limits and its conventions. With these considerations in mind, I have sought to sketch my proposal for a basic resemblance theory of abstract painting, critically engaging with philosophers such as Richard Wollheim, Kendall Walton, Lambert Wiesing and with art-critics and historians such as Clement Greenberg and Ernst Gombrich.
Il mio lavoro si inserisce nell’ambito del dibattito sul concetto di rappresentazione pittorica (RP) e sulla teoria dell’arte pittorica recentemente portato avanti in area analitica. I miei obiettivi principali sono un’esposizione critica dei problemi sollevati dalla tesi secondo cui è la somiglianza agli oggetti dipinti che spiega RP e un’analisi del fenomeno della pittura astratta da un punto di vista analitico. La prima parte è dedicata ad una ricognizione del dibattito analitico su RP, con particolare attenzione ai destini della “teoria della somiglianza”. Nel primo capitolo traccio i contorni delle principali teorie attualmente discusse, nel contesto di un’analisi della letteratura tradizionale sull’argomento, da Platone a Cartesio. La decisione di dare maggiore rilevanza alla teoria della somiglianza rispetto che ad altre teorie su RP è motivata dal fatto che il resto della mia ricerca è dedicato all’analisi e a una proposta di arricchimento di una delle proposte che recentemente hanno riproposto la teoria della somiglianza, benché con alcune importanti modifiche. Si tratta della teoria difesa da John Hyman, che espongo nel secondo capitolo, avendo cura di mostrarne i presupposti e di discutere alcune critiche e obiezioni che le sono state mosse. Il terzo e quarto capitolo sono dedicati all’arricchimento della teoria di Hyman in relazione al fenomeno della pittura astratta. Due sono le peculiarità della teoria di Hyman: primo, è in controtendenza rispetto a tutte le altre attuali proposte sulla RP, perché non ha bisogno di concepire RP come rappresentazione di particolari o di tipi di oggetti che possiamo facilmente identificare; secondo, è una teoria che porta l’arte al centro della discussione filosofica su RP. Hyman, infatti, illustra la sua proposta con numerosi riferimenti alla storia delle arti figurative. La seconda parte di questo lavoro è ispirata dall’idea che la teoria della somiglianza di base di Hyman si possa applicare anche ai dipinti astratti. Lo sviluppo di un’analisi della pittura astratta da un punto di vista analitico è un compito con cui finora si sono misurati pochissimi autori – per quanto ho potuto appurare. Tuttavia, è evidente che gli obiettivi che i pittori di immagini astratte si pongono sono vicini a quelli che si pongono i filosofi quando discutono sulla RP. È opinione diffusa che uno dei temi principali dell’arte contemporanea sia l’arte stessa, e che uno dei temi principali della pittura astratta sia l’arte stessa di dipingere, l’arte di produrre immagini, con i suoi limiti e le sue convenzioni. Motivata da queste considerazioni, ho cercato di dare una prima formulazione alla proposta di una teoria della somiglianza di base della RP applicata ai dipinti astratti. I miei principali riferenti critici sono filosofi come Richard Wollheim, Kendall Walton e Lambert Wiesing, e critici e storici dell’arte come Clement Greenberg ed Ernst Gombrich.
