Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Form constancy refers to the ability to recognize objects as the same despite changes in their appearance, such as changes in size, orientation, or position. Recognizing a door as a door regardless of how much it is opened is an example of this, as you are able to understand that the object's function and identity remain constant even though its appearance changes.
