English term or phrase: Computer-simulated blob

Termin ten występuje w kontekście przytaczanych badań psychologicznych, dlatego klasyfikuję go do takiej dziedziny. A oto fragment:

"The last fourty years of research on imitation shows it to be an interpretive, knowledge-seeking, activity from a very early age. The work of Andrew Meltzoff shows that even infant mimicry—the imitation of tongue protrusions and mouth opening, for example—involves the infant mapping the model’s body and face onto her own. Babies and toddlers follow the gaze of caretakers and interactive peers as well as of computer-simulated blobs who react to them"

W innym miejscu pojawia się termin "interactive blob":

"This research shows that we engage with actions under a description from a very young age, in order to find out about the world and other people. It also shows that at least for this purpose and at a very young age, we only have to see our models as enough like us for the imitation to to be worth our while; for this purpose, even an interactive blob is worth imitating and learning from".

Test Rorschacha

Test Rorschacha, test plam atramentowych, Ro – test projekcyjny, stworzony w 1921 roku przez szwajcarskiego psychoanalityka, Hermanna Rorschacha. Na podstawie testu wnioskuje się o nieświadomych treściach psychicznych, cechach osobowości i zaburzeniach psychicznych (jest on używany w diagnozie klinicznej).
Test składa się z 10 tablic z plamami atramentowymi (5 szaroczarnych, 2 szaroczerwone i 3 kolorowe). Tablice prezentuje się osobie badanej, która opowiada, co na nich widzi. W odpowiedziach bierze się pod uwagę:
interpretowany obszar (całość, części);
determinantę odpowiedzi (kształt, barwa, pozorny ruch);
poziom formy (zgodność obrazu z bodźcem);
treść (ludzie, zwierzęta etc.).
Mierzony jest także czas reakcji na poszczególne tablice. Wypowiedzi są klasyfikowane według klucza, na podstawie którego tworzony jest tzw. psychogram.

I do agree with MacroJanus, and cannot follow colleagues here who question the meaning of a "blob" in the context.
This reminds divinations we play, St. Andrew (name)day :)
... in addition, we are supported by computer techniques in order to confirm the external observations ... instead of wax and water ;)

Are you trying to give me a nightmare? As far as "plama" is concerned, it would have been great to have seen the blob first.

I just read more about Metzoff. He and his co-workers devised several tests. Here is a description of one:
Tne method was measuring an infant's visual preference for an object. In one study, infants were allowed to touch but not see a distinctively shaped object. Later they were shown (but could not touch) that object and a different object. The length of time they gazed at each object was measured. Infants looked longer at the object they had previously touched, thus demonstrating an ability to recognize the object with a different sense.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_N._Meltzoff
Here, it would appear that there was an object to follow in order to test the infant's recognition of recently seen objects.

Yes, but how to follow/imitate a blob? What does an infant do when he notices a blob eg. changing shape from circular to oval?

Because a blob is an irregular shape like "kleksa." Apparently, it is more important to follow an irregular shape than concentrate on its form.

O test Rohrschacha tu nie chodzi. Niemowlęta to pacjenci za młodzi nawet dla Melanii Klein. Poza tym eksperyment dotyczy naśladownictwa, a nie skojarzeń. Najsensowniejsza wydaje się propozycja whole grain, czyli "postać na ekranie", tylko czemu po angielsku jet ona określona mianem bloba?

computer-simulated blob postać na ekranie komputera

Explanation:
imho w tym kontekście "blob" to nie plama, a jakaś postać, nazwana prawdopodobnie "blobem" w celu podkreślenia, że jest raczej schematyczna i nie przypomina człowieka
