neither because it is half full of water and half full of air lol...
but if you are trying to find out how people view things i go half full lol
It's twice as big as it needs to be.
But, if some smart-alec looked at the URL where you got the image from: -

They'd conclude it's half full.

No, I'm pretty sure there is water in that glass.
There once was a member of this land,
A humerous posting he had planned.
But when he posted,
By mods he was toasted,
And he had found himself banned.

Looks like a metal trim in the middle with slightly thicker glass on the bottom, to give the illusion.
But if we're talking about perception, it could be way more complicated than that.
Provided it somehow was filled at exactly 50% of its capacity, it depends what it's filled with. If it's my favorite drink in the world, seeing it as half full is a good thing. If it's filled with the most disgusting flavor know to man, half full would be a bad thing.
I need more parameters.

I'd say that glass would be considered typical glassware. In fact, I'd say the original image came from here although it's been used in many places http://goo.gl/KQGQt (I hope that last link works, it's more experimental).

Debating if 50% of the glass is full or empty is irrelevant, what matters are the circumstances around it - the event that MADE the glass half empty or half full.
Which in case of drinking the glass to 50%, half empty, or filling the glass to 50%, half full.
Optimist: Half full.
Pessimist: Half empty.
Wisdom: Depends on the circumstances that made it what it is.
Despite that, I'm still going with my original answer, being: that the glass is twice as large as it needs to be.
