The perceptual process can be very deceiving to some people, for example, take a deep woods country boy from Arkansas and put him in New York or Los Angeles , everything he may have been taught growing up is flying around in his head fast enough to make him dizzy. That’s because the setting in the perceptual process could be the most important ingredient in that process.
There are three ingredients to this process. The perceiver, which is the person forming an opinion about another based on many different things, such as values and attitudes. The perceiver, which is the person forming an opinion about another based on many different things, such as values and attitudes. The perceived , is the individual or object an opinion is being formed about, for example, a person with tattoos versus someone with none. The third and final ingredient is the setting. The setting could involve many different combinations of things to include where a conversation took place, for example. This leads into perpetual process management.
The process described in the text is much like what we are taught in the military. We are taught to always listen to the message the subordinate are trying to convey by their work performance. This leads into distortion management which involved a few different topics, the most common being stereotypes.
Common perpetual distortions include stereotypes or prototypes such as believing every individual from a certain race or religion are all lazy. Halo effects occur when an individual forms an opinion about another because of one certain attribute such as attitude. Selective perception is what occurs when an individual singles out something from another with his own needs in mind. There are few other common distortions that occur which I could go on about forever. Attribution theory and management concern identifying an individual’s performance, for example, with either an outside source, such as a machine or an internal source, such as laziness. The management of such a attributions is not easy but a constant effort must be made to equalize external and internal so as to not give negative feedback automatically when not warranted.
One of the most common American proverbs is the expression to “never judge a book by its cover”. This saying, used for more than just books, is commonly used to express that what is on the appearance of something might not always show that things true nature or content. Even so people will often forget this fact and rely on their own perception. So what does this say about perception? To Victor Hugo author of the novel Les Misérables this would probable show that human perception is flawed and that people trust it more than they should. In Victor Hugo’s novel Les Misérables he suggests that by following only our perception will not always lead to the truth, with the characters of Thénardier, Jean Valjean, and Inspecter Javert.

First impressions are created by a composite of signals given off by a new experience (Flora, 2004). The judgment of these impressions depends on the observer and the person being observed (Flora, 2004). When you meet someone for the first time it takes about three seconds to be evaluated by the observer (Mind Tools, 1996-2011,). During this time the person forms an opinion about you based on your appearance, your body language, your demeanor, and how you dress (Mind Tools, 2996-2011,). Impressions are important to us because they are impossible to be reserved and the set the tone for all the relationships that follow (Mind Tools, 1996-2011).
In "On Entering a New Place", Barry Lopez discusses how perception can be deceiving when trying something new that you don't completely understand. Typically, a person would be uncomfortable about the unknown so in their minds they theorize what could be. To continue getting rid of their nerves, they run their ideas through their heads multiple times until they believe that is how it's supposed to be.
Perception is the process of understanding what information your senses are receiving in order to gain knowledge on what you are witnessing/seeing. The following quote explains more technically, what perception is; “Perception is the process by which you become aware of objects, events, and especially people through your senses: sight, smell, taste, touch, and sound.” (DeVito, J.A., 2015). Some of the ways in which perception is encountered is through the ‘process of perception’, Asch’s ‘configural model and ‘perceptual accentuation’. Each of these forms of perception relate to my own misjudgement of Jake earlier in the year. By further analysing these ideas, I can see how my perception of Jake influenced my view of and thoughts on him. Therefore
and the presence of distorted perceptions (Kolb & Whishaw, 2011). As a result of the
Perception is the process by which we grasp useful information about the external world through the senses. Armstrong argues in ‘Perception and Belief’ that perceptual experience is a disposition to form beliefs about the real world. The argument from illusion shows that perceptual knowledge is a misrepresentation of the world because external objects may have qualities they do not really possess. This is due to various experiences that are caused by hallucinations or by the influence of drugs. Given that reality can easily be altered by such cases, perception does not seem to represent a direct window onto the world. To overcome this problem, some philosophers like Russell postulated the sense datum theory as an object that stands in relation between the perceiver and an external object. Moreover, this view asserts that the perceiver is never in direct contact with reality but is in a continuous mental state that prevents him to see the world as it is. Hence, the perceiver is not deceived by the illusory cases because there is no objective world to be derived from. Armstrong rejects this theory by appeal to the indeterminacy principle and raises claims to support the reliability of perception as the acquisition of potential belief. On Armstrong’s view, the number of background inferences justifies the validity of perceptual beliefs with respect to providing knowledge of the external world. In ‘Sensation and Perception’, Dretske argues that perception and belief are not inextricably bound simply because belief requires a cognitive refined process of informational input while perception involves the casual flow of raw data not yet processed by the cognitive mechanisms. On Dretske’s view, a sui generis conception of perception tha...
The world is full of stimuli that can attract our attention through various senses. This might include anything that can be seen, touched, tasted, smelled or heard. According to yuwachet siritham the process in which in we create our perceptions is done in three steps, which is. First we select, then secondly we sort, and finally the third one is we will interpret the data given by our environment.
Each one of us lives in our own unique world of perception. As individuals, we may experience life in an entirely different way through our senses and life experiences. Therefore, perception can be tricky since it is very personal to each one of us. According to the Merriam-Webster online dictionary, perception has three meanings; (1) “the way you think about or understand someone or something,” (2) “the ability to understand or notice something easily,” and, (3) “the way that you notice or understand something using one of your senses” (2014, para. 1). C.S. Lewis said, “What you see and what you hear depends a great deal on where you are standing. It also depends on what sort of person you are” (n.d., para. 11). In other words,
"You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view... Until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it.”(Harper Lee). Every human being tends to view certain things in their own different and unique way. Perception is one of the most antique aspects of human interaction and behavior. How we perceive things is different than others, some will see the glass either half empty or as half full it just depends how we look at things.
Gestalt psychology was founded by German thinkers Max Wertheimer, Wolfgang Kohler and Kurt Koffka. They mainly focused on how people interpret the world around them. The Gestalt perspective formed partially as a response to the structuralism of Wilhelm Wundt, who focused on breaking down mental events and experiences to the smallest elements. Structuralists had failed in explaining the concept of ‘apparent motion’ and ‘illusory contours’.
Sensation refers to the process of sensing what is around us in our environment by using our five senses, which are touching, smell, taste, sound and sight. Sensation occurs when one or more of the various sense organs received a stimulus. By receiving the stimulus, it will cause a mental or physical response. It starts in the sensory receptor, which are specialized cells that convert the stimulus to an electric impulse which makes it ready for the brain to use this information and this is the passive process. After this process, the perception comes into play of the active process. Perception is the process that selects the information, organize it and interpret that information.
When one sees a cute illustration for a product or business, or perhaps if an animated show happens to catch an adult’s mature eye, no matter what the content, the first thought to pop in their head would be whether or not the topic or content is appropriate in the eyes of a child. A mischievous 10 year old watching a show like Scooby-Doo could soon want to solve mysteries or an affectionate seven year old could watch a superhero show and become passionate about protecting something. This is because of the younger mind’s ability to easily select a role model. The younger the child is, the more impressionable they can be. And therefore, the viewing of cartoons could have a large impact on a child, especially between the ages of four and twelve. The cartoons that children watch could be positive or negative, and it largely depends on a combination of the child’s personality and attitude, as well as the cartoons they view.
-With the respect to people this is a process of directing their efforts, them controlling their actions , and modifying their behavior.
An experience from everyday life that helps to work out perception and sensation is a football game. A ball could be kicked towards the goals. Two people will see the same ball going in the same direction at the same time yet one could say that the ball was a goal and the other could say that the ball went in through the goals for a point.
