Perception In Heartbeat
Do you think perception is reality? I do not think perception is reality. A lot of people perceive things that are not reality. Almost everyone
sometimes perceives different things. Everyone has their own way of perceiving things and there are a lot of people in the world. I think

Sense Perception In The Matrix : Sense Perception
Sense perception is a way to gain information by using our sense: touch, feel, taste, see, hear, and smell, it is a way of knowing. When it comes to
ways of knowing, like sense perception, it is questionable whether or not it affects us in a positive or negative way. It can be argued if it is leading us
in the wrong direction. If you see it, do you believe it? Sense perception is one way that allows us to interact and communicate with each other and the
world. This is our primary way of knowing because our senses live experiences that we go through. Based on our senses we are to make
interpretations of the world. For example, in class, each pair was given a box. Inside the box, there was one metal ball, but you had to figure out
the structure or the form of a maze inside the box. We couldn't see inside the box, and we couldn't touch the inside of the box. By using our sense of
hearing and another way of knowing, imagination, we were able to make an educated guess of what the inside structure of the box looked like. Sense
perception can be limiting as a way of knowing because our senses can misguide and deceive us. Rene Descartes talks about the idea of whether or not
sense perception can identify what is real and what is false, which ties into the events that occurred in the Matrix. In the movie, The Matrix, Neo was
living a normal life until he was guided to the underworld to meet Morpheus (Greek god of dreams). Neo wants to what the matrix is, so he accepts

Learning is defined as the process of gaining knowledge of something or how to do something. As human beings, we tend to learn different things in
the society we live in. learning is essential in the development of both physical and mental growth of human beings. Learning in human beings is
based on what we are able to retain about the new aspect that we have learnt. According to Thomas leahey human beings can forget 78% of whatever

First of all, let us know that what this "perception" is? In general, perception is the process by which we acquire the information about the world
around us and inside us, using our senses. For example If I feel that a red car is going by the road and a women is sitting on it, drinking coffee, then
first of all I should have sense that what is car, roads, red, coffee etc. These all perceptions require possession of concepts, but there exists another class

Perception And Perception Of Perception
Imagine you are walking down the street; it is a beautiful, breezy day. You stop for a moment, you notice a tree. For some reason you find this tree to
be very alluring. You can't help but stare as you attempt to capture this moment. You notice the way the light dances through the branches, the way the
breeze catches each leaf, sending them into a blissful dance. The limbs move so freely throughout the crisp air. This expression of pure freedom and
bliss etched upon the face of nature. It captivates you. Since the very moment that this tree captured your attention, perception has been at work.
Perception has allowed for you to interpret this one particular occurrence and, in turn, experience life. The process of perception helps us to
experience the world at large. It is our perceptions that make up our conscious experience and make it possible for us to interact with the people and
objects that surround us. Perception, in psychological terms, can be defined as the process of organizing, interpreting, and selectively extracting
sensory information from the world around us. It is through this process that we are able to experience all of our senses. The perceptual process
refers not only to the recognition of a given stimulus but also the response we have to said stimuli. It is also through this process that we are able to
further our understanding of the world around us and ultimately, survive. The perceptual process shapes our experiences and allows us to take part in the

Perception And Perception Of Perception Essay
Perception serves more than one purpose to the human experience. Wikipedia defines Perception as – the organization, identification, and interpretation
of sensory information in order to represent and understand the environment. This definition unfortunately describes only one of the services perception
provides. I would like to offer instead the definition – Perception is a collection of data filters, some natural but most created by education and
experience, which serve to shape and enforce limits on sensory and intellectual data that is considered to provide the individual a world view in which
to operate within. Similar definitions yes, but the differences are critical.
In the Wikipedia definition, perception is nothing more than an interpreter of sensory information. It implies that all sensory information is considered,
and considered equally. Additionally it implies that intellectual data such as words, symbols, and events are not subject to perceptional filters. These
critical omissions remove from view that perception is subjective and subordinate to the human intellect, a key concept in the road to higher
enlightenment which I will discuss in future posts.
Perception provides to the human experience with:
–A world view to determine what sensory and intellectual data to consider and what to discard based upon (representative, not all inclusive):

Personal Accountability

managing others? View the short video posted and comment on the impact of perception and presentation. How might this impact the way in which
managers present tasks/rewards, etc. to subordinates?
I completely agree with the quote "perception is reality". The Oxford Dictionary definition of reality: "a thing that is actually experienced or seen".
Reality is based on experiences and personality which shape perception. Perception creates algorithms for the brain to filter, as well as contextualize,
data. When receiving data, the brain uses filters the data using reference points based on previous experiences to interpret, understand, and store data.
The same happens when the brain is filtering outgoing data, such as during a conversation–the brain uses previous experiences to filter and shape the
way data is delivered. This plays into "perception being reality" because one person's output may not match another person's input. As mentioned in,
perceptions are also based personality. For example if one is an introvert or extroverts (Susan Cain: The Power of Introverts).
It is very possible that two people in the same situation perceive it very differently. For example, Janet and Julie are going shopping. Julie tries on a

Gestalt Psychology and Perception
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'.
Gestalt psychologists further recognized that structuralism could not explain many perceptual phenomena. In response, they proposed that perception is
based on the organization of stimuli into holistic and meaningful forms. They are well–known for the phrase "the whole is different than the sum of its
... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
They assumed that, 'the whole is more than its sum of its parts'. This explains that what is perceived has its own new properties that emerge from the
organization that takes place. Organization in perception partially explains our perception of complex patterns as unitary form or objects. We see
objects as objects only because grouping processes operate in perception.
Our perceptual experiences are filled with groups and patterns of stimuli, which are labeled as objects. The way the objects are perceived by people,
comes into our awareness as shapes and patterns. Therefore they tend to organize sensory inputs into perception of simple patterns or objects. The
reason for this is that, people do not ordinarily perceive the world around them as patches of colour, variation in brightness or through sounds, but
perception of objects are due to learning.
Therefore, Gestalt psychologist has extensively studied the organizing tendencies in perception. They have given meaningful existence of such
tendencies to strengthen their argument that the perceived world is not just the scene of simple sensory experiences. The principle that helps to
explain how objects are organized and perceived includes the following:

Essay Perceptions on Belonging
Perceptions of Belonging in our society
"We belong ... like fish in water. We're in our environment." This quote from the New York Times shows the perception of belonging as the idea
about connecting to a place, person, group or a community. 'Feliks Skrzynecki' by Peter Skrzynecki, 'I'm nobody! Who are you?' by Emily Dickinson
and 'The Rabbits' by John Marsden & Shaun Tan show theconcept of belonging as being contrasted towards the New York Times quote, showing the
alienation and non–existent connection towards it. These texts have furthered my understanding on the perceptions of belonging by recognising the
different concepts of connection to people, places and things.
The text "Feliks Skrzynecki" by Peter Skrzynecki ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Who are you?" by Emily Dickinson shows the connection towards the society, the people and herself. In the poem, the poet portrays herself as a
"Nobody" and playfully asks the responder "Who are you?". Dickinson follows up by adding "Are you nobody too?/Then there is a pair of us!" this
helps Dickinson unite with the responder adding the sense of belonging to one another. In the last stanza, the poet shows how oppressive the
"somebodies" crowd can be "Don't tell!/They'd advertise – you know?" This also shows the connection that Dickinson has with being a nobody, and
the ability to stand out from the crowd. "How dreary to be somebody!" shows how the poet loves to be a nobody, and feels like she belongs.
Dickinson frequently uses rhythmic dashes to interrupt the flow, and engage the responder to pause to think and feel about the line. The poet also uses
juxtaposition in the line "How public–like a Frog–" These combining elements are not typically considered together, and, thus, more powerfully
conveying its meaning. The poem shows that Dickinson is quite content with not connecting with the "somebodies" and that the poet enjoys being an
outsider to the rest of the world and feels like she belongs to her own little place.

Why Do Differences in Perception Occur?
The way you sense the world–the way you see, hear, smell, touch, and taste–is subjective, uniquely your own. Nobody else sees the world the way you
do, and nobody experiences events exactly as you do. The uniqueness of human experience is based largely on differences in perception–"the process of
becoming aware of objects and events from the senses" (DeVito, 1986)

Culture and Co–culture
The ways people greet each other, position themselves when they talk, and even eat and sleep are all influenced by culture. An intercultural
communication researcher, maintains that what people see, hear, taste, touch, and smell is conditioned by their culture. He says that people's
perceptions are largely learned; the greater the experiential differences among people, the greater the disparity in their perceptions. Conversely, the
more similar their backgrounds, the more similarly they perceive the world.
People from different cultures and different countries perceive communication differently. American speakers who are accustomed to a certain level of
feedback might find audiences in Finland and Norway to be inexpressive.
To complicate matters further, your co–culture also affects your perceptions of the world. Women and men, for example, tend to see the world
differently, to communicate about it differently, and even to practice and perceive communication itself differently. Women tend to see talk as

Merleau-Ponty on Perception
Merleau–Ponty on Perception In "The world of perception" by Merleau–Ponty, he disagrees with both Weber and Descartes' conception and perception
of the world. The book itself largely focuses on Descartes by giving a critique of him through the notion of one self, notion of perception and sensation.
Merleau– Ponty gives a critic of Descartes throughout the book; Weber is mentioned in the book, but not extensively like Descartes. The author's
argue throughout the lectures by the means of a critique of what he refers to as 'classical world', which is the fundamental attitude underlying one's
experience and actions as well as a purely natural– scientific and philosophical enlightenment, especially as it is referred to by Descartes. Throughout
the book Merleau–Ponty reminds the readers to rediscover the human experience in different perspectives. For Weber, he believes that natural–sciences
are the only avenue to the truth, so the natural sciences can only be explained by means of causes. With Weber inmind, Merleau–Ponty reflects,
"whether science does, or ever could, present us with a picture of the world." He adds that, "there could no longer be any meaningful questions outside
this picture." Thus, Merleau–Ponty's method is description of a purely natural–scientific account of sensation and explanation of parodies. One of the

The sensory system is a part of the nervous system. It is responsible for processing our sensory information, and it is the way in which we make
contact in our everyday lives through our five senses – sight, touch, hearing, smell and taste. (IML Training, 2012) Our sensory receptors allow us to
pick up information – ears, eyes, nostrils, tongue and skin. All senses evolve to collect their distinct type of information about our environment and to
inform us of our status within it. (Goldstein, 2009)

The early wiring of the brain and sensory helps explains why some people are born without a sense and can later regain it. An example would be deaf
people receiving cochlear implants later in their lives, causing difficulty integrating the new sensory information. (Humphries, 2011)
There are reasons to trust the accuracy or inaccuracy of sensory data. When considering that a person touches a hot stove or iron, our sensory
information of feeling immediately messages our brain to remove our hand. There will be other incidents where our sensory appears to be working
well; environmental influences can distort interpretation of data that are being sent to us. (Goodpaster, 2007)

Perception And Perception Of A Human Mind
This topic is specifically interesting because I want to do a research on how human mind perceives things as it happens, and the kinds of role that
perceptions play in human mind. Perception of things cannot be true at all the time. It might be illusional. Perception of a certain element/event of life
is a natural cause. It is an instantaneous action inside the brain's functional parts. Consequently, it gives awareness or consciousness to the mind. The
topic is specifically relevant today because perception is a natural cause, it cannot be evaluated to its full potential. There are always flaw in decoding
perception of a human mind. The significance of this topic is to inform people about direct and indirect form of perception. Visual perception is a
learning process which can be modified at particular instant of time.
Some of perspectives to support the essay is to inquire how does human perceive information with development of mind via multi sensory perception,
self–awareness/consciousness, and indirect perception. Most of the perspective will concern about the effect of mind perception on particular age

Perception And Perception Of Perception
Perception has a few definitions; the most frequently used definition is what we become aware of through our senses. However, perception is not just
what our senses tell us, it is our reaction to the feelings we sense. Perception just happens; it is something we cannot control. The mind tells us how we
feel before we even realize what is happening.
When people say they are good judges of character, they base their decisions on what they initially see. Appearance plays a huge role in how we
perceive someone to be. For instance, a long, shaggy haired man, who wears dirty clothes, brings our mind to think that this man is lazy, or even
homeless. Maybe this man is homeless because of his laziness, the specifics do not hold much value but the point speaks volumes about how we judge,
or 'perceive' something. The judgments are not reserved just for people; we judge objects and other people's thoughts as well. When walking down the
street, the eyes wander, and many things draw their attention, and the objects they see are immediately deemed safe, unsafe, fun, not fun, etc. Thoughts
are similar, we do not believe someone's thoughts are the same as our own, we think differently.Perception is unique to each individual.
People do not perceive things the same as their neighbors, and vice versa. The truth is, perception is something that develops over a lifespan.

What is perception?
It is the process of recognizing and interpreting sensory stimuli.
Perception is how you can see the world around you, how you experience the world around. There are two things that are included in perception. The
first is the environment that you are in and how that stimulates the senses of recognition. The second is how you respond to the environment and what
action is taken in and how you respond to the information you are taking in.
Perception includes five senses:
1.Touch.
2.Sight.
3.Taste.
4.Smell.

The biggest example of this for this generation is Brain training games/Applications widely available over the last 5–10 years. The understanding that
the brain could be enhanced and trained to be better, think faster and learn quicker. The speed of your reactions to different actions and
circumstances play a large part in your everyday life. Fast reaction times can produce big rewards, for example, you're a goalkeeper in a soccer match
and you end up saving a blistering soccer ball from entering the goal. In this instant slow reaction times may come with consequences.
When the goalkeeper realizes the ball is blistering towards them, there is visual information that has to be processed and decisions regarding a correct
course of action. The brain then needs to send many signals to various muscles. Feet begin to move, body stands taller, hands might travel in front of
the face, and eyes may close shut suddenly, along with many more processes. This is the work of many neurons as well as numerous systems and
circuits in the brain, and what's more, and you can train and enhance your skill through practice.

Psychophysics is the study of the relationship between the physical properties of a stimulus and the perception of that stimulus. If the relation between a
given stimulus parameter and perception were always one–to–one, it would be easy to predict the effects of changing one or more stimulus parameters.
Therefore, psychophysics investigates how much of stimuli we can detect and how we detect differences between stimuli in the environment with our
sensory systems, including vision, auditory, taste, smell, and pain.

The term friendship is defined as a mutual strand of affection between two or more people. It is a stronger form of interpersonal bond than an
association. It is a link between people who show trust and altruism with one another without the placement of sexual or physical intimacy that
commonly happens in a romantic relationship. Friends tend to share common interests, demographics, backgrounds, and traits of the self. However,
before we get to know a person, we use perception to categorize them into a certain role. It often causes us to assume that the other party is superior
or inferior to us. We do this more often than not without even realizing we've engaged in perception. Perception played a very large part in the first
meeting of my best friend, Cinda, and I. In Chapter 4: Interpersonal Perception (Floyd, 2011), there are many examples of the ways in which people
instantly perceive another person as being one way or another. This exact thing happened when I met Cinda. Our perceptions of one another were not
complimentary or nice, in fact, we were practically enemies at the time. Negativity bias, or the tendency to weigh negative information more heavily
than positive (Floyd, 2011), would describe what we felt with each other. We were unable to see anything good or complimentary about the other.

Perception And Perception Of Perception
To know how perception interacts with the brain to create reality we first have to better understand perception. Perception is the active process of
selecting, organizing, and interpreting the information brought to the brain by the senses. Perception is an important part of creating reality because,
your reality is determined by your memories, beliefs, culture, life experiences, as well as your senses and perception. Although sensation and perception
work together to help create our reality they are two very different things. Sensation is the physical observation of an object using one of the five
senses. Perception is what interprets the sense and understands the meaning. Perception gives us the ability to make sense out of the sensations. For
instance, seeing the light (sensation) is different from determining its color (perception). Another example is that feeling the coldness of the
environment is different from perceiving that winter is coming. Also, hearing a sound is different from perceiving the music being played. Our senses
and perception work together for us to be able to identify and create meaning from information, and play an important role in creating our reality.
When our perception is hindered we are unable to understand the information we sense, causing a false reality. Sometimes we are deceived and cannot
tell what is real and what's not real. Our brain and our eyes don 't always agree. Your brain could tell you you're seeing something even though it's

was also the same blade used to kill his father. This is the facts presented by the prosecution, the 'truth'. This truth is wavered when the 8th juror
brings out a blade exactly the same as the one as the one the boy had. It is interesting as the shopkeeper stated that it was rare and unusual yet, the 8th
juror brought the same one from a pawn shop near the boy's house. This contradiction therefore questions the credibility of the shopkeeper's accounts
and brings a shadow of a doubt to this case. The boy's friends did indeed identify it as the death weapon but with the possibility of this switchblade
being an abundant produce, it also presents the possibility that another person stabbed and killed his father with the same kind of knife.
The next piece of evidence that is debated is the testimony of one of the key witnesses of the prosecution. The old man living downstairs heard the
boy yell, "I'll kill you!" followed by a thump on the floor. He then witnessed a young man, supposedly the defendant, running away. The old man said
that after the thump, he ran straight to the door in fifteen seconds and saw the boy running as he opened the door. During the proceedings of the trial,
the old man was dragging his foot slowly across the floor having recently suffered a stroke. The jurors observed

Perceptions And Perceptions Of Consumer Behavior Essay
In attitude–behaviour relationships, the Theory of Reasoned Action states that consumer behaviours are constructed by their attitudes, and the attitude
itself is the result of the consumers' perception (Fishbein & Ajzen, 1975). With regards to greenwashing, research has found that this attitude–behaviour
relationship could manipulate the perception of consumer (see table 2 for perceptions and explanations), for instance, perceived deception (Newell et
al., 1998), perceived scepticism (Albayrak et al., 2011), perceived inconsistency (Gallicano, 2011), perceived distrust, and/or perceived risk (Chen &
Chang, 2013). Consumers motivations for purchasing green products differ and may even be contradictory (Cleveland, Kalamas, & Laroche, 2005).
However, to some degree, the motivations are thought to influence consumer purchasing behaviour and perception (Albayrak et al., 2011).
If the consumer's negative perceptions of falsely claimed green products are correlated, it corresponds to Oliver's (1980) Expectancy Disconfirmation
Theory, as well as Fishbein's Multi–attribute Model which also employs three components of attitude. Firstly, in Fishbein's Multi–attribute Model are
'salient beliefs', referencing the opinions an individual may acquire during the evaluation of goods or services. Second, are 'object–attribute linkages',
these are a gauge of the possibility of significance toward a specific attribute that is related to the object in question. The third component is

The Perception Of Visual Perception
Everyday our brain receive a big number of information from the environment around us. Eyes and other sense organs, collects sensory inputs and
transmits them to the brain. What is happening next? The answer can be found in a process known as perception. But what is it exactly? Perception is
"the mental activity of interpreting the impressions received through the senses of sight, hearing, tasting, feeling and smelling" (MacMillan and Powell,
1973). In other words, it is a process of taking information about the environment and giving it meaning. How the brain attaches meaning to the sensory
information? The understanding of the mechanisms of this process was discussed widely among philosophers in the past, but because of its
complexity it is still a popular topic in contemporary psychology. One of the most popular issue is visual perception. Some people say that vision is our
most dominant sense. Without direct contact, "from the light that enters our eyes to the complex cognitive processes that follow, we derive most of
our information about what things are, where they are, and how they move from our vision" (Wade, Swanson 2013). The process of seeing is directly
connected with our brain by a light–sensitive membrane in the back of the eye, called the retina. The lens of the eye focuses light on the layer of cells
in retina, subsequently light is converted into neuronal signals, processed and sent to the primary and secondary visual cortex of the brain. However,

Speech On Perception
There's many factors in life that makes us view the world in a certain way. Everybody has a different opinion about the world and everything
around. In the article "Perception can influence you in many ways", written by Bryan Golden. He said "How do you see the world around you? Do
you take action based on your needs and goals, or is your behavior dependent on how you feel others will view you? There are two types of perception;
the way you see yourself and your world and the way others see you and their world. The only perception you have control over is your own. It is
just not possible to control the perception of others.For example, consider the temperature of a room. You perceive a room as being comfortable
while someone else thinks it's too cold. No amount of discussion or arguing will resolve the difference in perception. Our own behavior is
influenced by how we feel we'll be perceived. Not only are we concerned with the perception of people we know and who are close to us, we are
even sensitive to the perception of complete strangers.Therefore, we will alter or avoid any behavior we believe will be perceived as foolish. This
causes us to alter our path to accommodate the perceptions of others. As a result, our goals are compromised or missed altogether. Ironically, people
often have the same perception of you regardless of what you do. It's a complete waste of time to worry about the perceptions of others.

Self Perception
When we look at the sky the first thing we wish to see are the stars, those
amazing shinning objects everyone talks about, but not all see. Self–concept and
perception work the same way. Through interpersonal communication we relate,
communicate and evolve with other people physically and emotionally and it's affected
by one's self–concept, perception and emotion.
Self–concept is a term used to refer to how someone thinks about or perceives
themselves. How we think about and evaluate ourselves and how aware we are of
ourselves as a concept to be. A more stable definition is, as Baumeister provides, "the
individual's belief about himself or herself, including the person's attributes and who and
what the self is".

The simpler the message, the easier the
other person will get it. You can have a simple discussion by asking straight questions
to someone and having direct and concrete responses. When you have a hard time
discussing an issue that you not know exactly how to express, your recipient might
loose himself in the conversation. Like in any type of communication, there's a chance
that the intended meaning is lost. Specially, when people try to express their feelings
the meanings get wrongly perceived. A person might want to break up a relationship but
in a nice and mature way, so they try to smooth the situation and be sensitive about not
saying something dry that can hurt its partner. But, if it is too sensitive and too nice, the
meaning could get wrongly perceived and the recipient might think its just an issue they
will get over easily, when the point totally was not that.
Perception is someone's reality, it determines how they perceive information from
another person and how the perception of others is the product of how you view
yourself. Perception can be learned, physical or cultural depending on your
environment.
They type of learned perception is formed with someone's personality, from the

Stereotypes Of Perception
In today's quick society, people often base their idea of who someone is without any actual information about the person. Most times it is done in order
to 'save time' – therefore causing people to create ideas about who a person is. It is not uncommon for people to jump to conclusions based off their
personal experience and that can shape how they perceive the world around them. It causes some to stereotype people based on what their appearance

person, but because of how some cultures have placed a stereotype on what gender 'should' be – people may still slide into using a stereotype about a

Perception And Perception Of The World
Perception of the world around, as well as the perception of mind, is a very complex notion to grasp. Epistemology is the study of knowledge, with
regard to methods, as well as what differentiates belief from opinion. This study is especially important when discussing DharmakД«rti and knowing
where his concern resides. DharmakД«rti, a 7th–century Buddhist scholar and founder of philosophical logic in India, was very concerned with how
we perceive things to how we interpret them into knowledge. For perception to be a universal, it must be completely non–conceptual. Perceptions are
also negotiated about within different schools of Buddhism, such as the Samkhya, NyДЃya, and Abhidharma. Perception is inherently reflexive. The
theory of perception, given by DharmakД«rti's Buddhist Epistemology, reduces to perception being a result of one 's encounter with the world, as well
as it being a primary valid cognition. "It [perception] reduces external objects to interpreted mental data, but such data are no longer taken to stand for
external objects (because it now helps that nothing exists outside of consciousness). (105)" Perception can only be non–conceptual, according to
DharmakД«rti, because that is the only true way for perceptions to be completely undistorted in the universe of particulars."For Buddhist
epistemologist, an act of knowing–whether it be a perception or an inference–is reliable in that it directs one to an object with the desired relic efficacy

Perception And Perception Of Perception Checking
Perception Checking Perception checking is a cooperative approach to communication that provides accuracy instead of assuming our first
interpretation is correct. It minimizes defensiveness through face saving and requires both nonverbal and verbal elements to match. The benefits of
perception checking is to help us have a better understanding of a message, so both persons can mutually relate and to reduce conflict so we don 't
jump to conclusions. In the perception process reality is constructed in two ways. The first order realities is physically observable qualities of a thing or
situation. For example, if your friend calls you a "bone head". On the other hand, second order realities cannot reside in objects or events but rather in
our minds. It involves our attaching meaning to first order things or situations. For instance, your friend is being critical is an example of second order
realities. Perception checking has three parts: description, interpretation, and clarification. Description is describing a behavior that was noticed.
Interpretation is providing interpretations of the behavior, Lastly, ask for clarification from the person about the behavior and interpretations. These
three parts are important because they help an individual how to prevent assuming something that is probably not the intention of the other person

Thus a factor that influences perception and purchase decisions would be an individual's character. A customer can have personal knowledge and
experience about coffee that formed a perception that coffee bean sell quality beverages and excites ones taste buds. A customer may also have a
perception of the brand due to prior experience with the company or experience.
Marketing Implications
Customers generally have expectations, which are steered by their perception of the brand and product, this thus influences their purchase decisions.
Coffee bean has successfully able to tailor their marketing offers so that customers are able to identify with their products. Coffee bean offers more
than just the coffee, tea or dessert experience. They provide customers with the whole dining experience by selling main courses such as pasta and
sandwiches. This way customers patronizing coffee bean have a perception that they have more choices then just coffee and tea. Thus customers are
able to identify with the brand, and coffee bean is also able to make a noticeable between its competitors.
As we know customers perceptual process is lightning quick. Every little detail counts in changing ones perception of the company. Which is why

Most people assume everyone sees the world the same way. This can be expected because people are not able to compare what they see to what
someone else sees (using language to describe visuals is inherently biased). This widely accepted assumption, however, is inaccurate. There is evidence
that each person's perception of the world is different– if only in minor ways. For example, a perception discrepancy can be found when comparing

The biological process of perception can help explain this definition; what exactly does it mean that the brain interprets stimuli from the environment
and makes it into what we see and hear? According to biologists, the process begins with stimuli, usually in the form of photons, vibrations or chemical
reactions from the outside world, being picked up by the sensory systems. The stimuli is detected by a sensory neuron located on the surface of the
body. This neuron converts the stimuli's light, sound, heat, etc. into action potentials. The action potential changes the membrane permeability of the
neuron which allows it to transform into electric signs. The signs are conducted to a primary processing area and elaborated on eventually being
converted into corresponding information regarding color, shape, shade, etc. Next, this new information is brought to the thalamus (usually) where it is
linked to older data containing similar experiences to form a complete message. The message is carried to its specific cortical center to become
perception. Therefore, perception is actually a message constructed using outside inputs, inner–neuron processes and past, relevant information stored
in the brain.

According to the Barber's Analysis of presidents personalities says that Kennedy was an Active–Positive president. The active–positive category is the
only group where the presidents are seen as confident instead of having low self–esteem. Among that trait the category also includes being optimistic,
being flexible, and being one that relishes power. These personality traits might have cause Kennedy cause to be a more effective leader over someone
who was considered a passive–positive or active –negative president. Both passive–positive and action–negative personalities have low self–esteem
and are equally driven by a longing to be accepted. The difference between the two is that passive–positive types are somewhat optimistic were as
action–negative types are super aggressive. These personality traits could be considered as weaknesses. For example being too aggressive with
congress show a lack to persuade and the in fact shows a lack of power. This might be why Kennedy was seen as a better president than Lyndon
Johnson who happen to be his vice president. But being viewed as a good leader/ president is not all about the power to persuade or about certain
personality traits like being confident it is also about the qualities of a president's character. The qualities of Kennedy could be seen as
communication, credibility, vison, and flexibility. Kennedy was a good communicator, he often come off as very knowable and convincing. However
the public would not have been willing to believe him had he not the quality of being credible. With Kennedy these two qualities went hand and hand

The Perception Of The Image
Before a person can understand, analyze, or interpret a photograph, the image must first be viewed. This involves more than just the stimulus or
environment in which the image is presented. When an image is examined, there are indirect and direct forces that play a role in its analysis. The
actual image that the eyes visualize does not match up completely with what a person will perceive. What a person sees is a complex relationship
between many variables including their past experiences, memories, and personalities (Zakia 64).There is typically a seamless connection between
what a person sees, and what a person is looking to see (Zakia 64). This idea can be better explained in the variations of responses given when people
look at a particular photograph. The different interpretations can be small or great depending on the audience. The variation is caused by the different
past experiences and feelings within each individual.
A percept is used to explain what a person sees and experiences (Zakia 65). This means that a percept is directly related to a specific person's perception
. While many people are unaware of this, it is important to identify that this is a process, not a single action. It is impossible to describe an
individual's percept exactly because there is no way to correctly verbalize it (Zakia 65). If a person is asked to look at a photograph and then

Another problem that barriers to perception can create is an incompetency in business (Marques, 2012). In this scenario the barrier to perception hides
internal process failures which can lead to a process that lacks the "qualities needed for effective action" (Merriam–Webster (A), 2012). The barriers to
perception in business are usually associated with overestimating or underestimating individual contribution and performance on behalf of the
organization (Mills, Mills & Bratton, 2006). These misperceptions lead to the development of processes that are inadequate to meet the
needs of the organization and do not allow an individual to advance. To solve the problems associated with barriers to perception it is necessary to
analyze how we perceive things in business. This analysis will focus upon two areas of interest. The first area of interest is how we perceive
things in business. This area of interest will explore specific perception processes that are necessary for business and that can be impaired by

Firstly, factors in the perceiver consist of experiences, motives and emotions (Johns & Saks, 2010). For example, a person who is happy at the

  • 2. Sense Perception In The Matrix : Sense Perception Sense perception is a way to gain information by using our sense: touch, feel, taste, see, hear, and smell, it is a way of knowing. When it comes to ways of knowing, like sense perception, it is questionable whether or not it affects us in a positive or negative way. It can be argued if it is leading us in the wrong direction. If you see it, do you believe it? Sense perception is one way that allows us to interact and communicate with each other and the world. This is our primary way of knowing because our senses live experiences that we go through. Based on our senses we are to make interpretations of the world. For example, in class, each pair was given a box. Inside the box, there was one metal ball, but you had to figure out the structure or the form of a maze inside the box. We couldn't see inside the box, and we couldn't touch the inside of the box. By using our sense of hearing and another way of knowing, imagination, we were able to make an educated guess of what the inside structure of the box looked like. Sense perception can be limiting as a way of knowing because our senses can misguide and deceive us. Rene Descartes talks about the idea of whether or not sense perception can identify what is real and what is false, which ties into the events that occurred in the Matrix. In the movie, The Matrix, Neo was living a normal life until he was guided to the underworld to meet Morpheus (Greek god of dreams). Neo wants to what the matrix is, so he accepts ...

If perception is inaccurate, incorrect or altered in any way – problems with reading, spelling, handwriting, math and comprehension occur. Visual perceptual skills involve the ability to organize and interpret the information that is seen and give it meaning. The importance of visual perceptual skills in academic success is agreed upon by many, acknowledging reading would not be possible without adequate visual perception. (www.advancedvisiontherapycenter.com) Without accurate visual perceptual processing, a student would have difficulty learning to read, give or follow directions, copy from the whiteboard, visualize objects or past experiences, have good eye–hand coordination, integrate visual information with other senses to do things like ride a bike, play catch, shoot baskets when playing basketball, or hear a sound and visualize where it is coming from (like the siren on a police ...

It is shared sometimes that illusion distort reality, but that is not the case, it is just a thought of some peoples. As we discussed above also that reality is nothing but, a commonly experienced perception. Some illusions are due to the general assumptions made by our brain during perception.

  • 6. Perception And Perception Of Perception Imagine you are walking down the street; it is a beautiful, breezy day. You stop for a moment, you notice a tree. For some reason you find this tree to be very alluring. You can't help but stare as you attempt to capture this moment. You notice the way the light dances through the branches, the way the breeze catches each leaf, sending them into a blissful dance. The limbs move so freely throughout the crisp air. This expression of pure freedom and bliss etched upon the face of nature. It captivates you. Since the very moment that this tree captured your attention, perception has been at work. Perception has allowed for you to interpret this one particular occurrence and, in turn, experience life. The process of perception helps us to experience the world at large. It is our perceptions that make up our conscious experience and make it possible for us to interact with the people and objects that surround us. Perception, in psychological terms, can be defined as the process of organizing, interpreting, and selectively extracting sensory information from the world around us. It is through this process that we are able to experience all of our senses. The perceptual process refers not only to the recognition of a given stimulus but also the response we have to said stimuli. It is also through this process that we are able to further our understanding of the world around us and ultimately, survive. The perceptual process shapes our experiences and allows us to take part in the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 7. Perception And Perception Of Perception Essay Perception serves more than one purpose to the human experience. Wikipedia defines Perception as – the organization, identification, and interpretation of sensory information in order to represent and understand the environment. This definition unfortunately describes only one of the services perception provides. I would like to offer instead the definition – Perception is a collection of data filters, some natural but most created by education and experience, which serve to shape and enforce limits on sensory and intellectual data that is considered to provide the individual a world view in which to operate within. Similar definitions yes, but the differences are critical. In the Wikipedia definition, perception is nothing more than an interpreter of sensory information. It implies that all sensory information is considered, and considered equally. Additionally it implies that intellectual data such as words, symbols, and events are not subject to perceptional filters. These critical omissions remove from view that perception is subjective and subordinate to the human intellect, a key concept in the road to higher enlightenment which I will discuss in future posts. Perception provides to the human experience with: –A world view to determine what sensory and intellectual data to consider and what to discard based upon (representative, not all inclusive): Personal Impact Personal Accountability Personal Interest Personal Relevance Ability to effect Sources

  • 9. Perception Of Perception And Presentation 1.A relatively famous, but unattributed quote is, "Perception is Reality." Do you agree with this? What implications does this concept have on managing others? View the short video posted and comment on the impact of perception and presentation. How might this impact the way in which managers present tasks/rewards, etc. to subordinates? I completely agree with the quote "perception is reality". The Oxford Dictionary definition of reality: "a thing that is actually experienced or seen". Reality is based on experiences and personality which shape perception. Perception creates algorithms for the brain to filter, as well as contextualize, data. When receiving data, the brain uses filters the data using reference points based on previous experiences to interpret, understand, and store data. The same happens when the brain is filtering outgoing data, such as during a conversation–the brain uses previous experiences to filter and shape the way data is delivered. This plays into "perception being reality" because one person's output may not match another person's input. As mentioned in, perceptions are also based personality. For example if one is an introvert or extroverts (Susan Cain: The Power of Introverts). It is very possible that two people in the same situation perceive it very differently. For example, Janet and Julie are going shopping. Julie tries on a pair of jeans and asks Janet for her thoughts. Janet replies, "those jeans don't look good on you". Unfortunately, ...

  • 10. Gestalt Psychology and Perception 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'. Gestalt psychologists further recognized that structuralism could not explain many perceptual phenomena. In response, they proposed that perception is based on the organization of stimuli into holistic and meaningful forms. They are well–known for the phrase "the whole is different than the sum of its ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... They assumed that, 'the whole is more than its sum of its parts'. This explains that what is perceived has its own new properties that emerge from the organization that takes place. Organization in perception partially explains our perception of complex patterns as unitary form or objects. We see objects as objects only because grouping processes operate in perception. Our perceptual experiences are filled with groups and patterns of stimuli, which are labeled as objects. The way the objects are perceived by people, comes into our awareness as shapes and patterns. Therefore they tend to organize sensory inputs into perception of simple patterns or objects. The reason for this is that, people do not ordinarily perceive the world around them as patches of colour, variation in brightness or through sounds, but perception of objects are due to learning. Therefore, Gestalt psychologist has extensively studied the organizing tendencies in perception. They have given meaningful existence of such tendencies to strengthen their argument that the perceived world is not just the scene of simple sensory experiences. The principle that helps to explain how objects are organized and perceived includes the following: 4.1 LAW OF SIMILARITY According to Gestalt psychology, perception is about what happens to information as we process it, not just about the information itself.

  • 14. Essay Perceptions on Belonging Perceptions of Belonging in our society "We belong ... like fish in water. We're in our environment." This quote from the New York Times shows the perception of belonging as the idea about connecting to a place, person, group or a community. 'Feliks Skrzynecki' by Peter Skrzynecki, 'I'm nobody! Who are you?' by Emily Dickinson and 'The Rabbits' by John Marsden & Shaun Tan show theconcept of belonging as being contrasted towards the New York Times quote, showing the alienation and non–existent connection towards it. These texts have furthered my understanding on the perceptions of belonging by recognising the different concepts of connection to people, places and things. The text "Feliks Skrzynecki" by Peter Skrzynecki ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Who are you?" by Emily Dickinson shows the connection towards the society, the people and herself. In the poem, the poet portrays herself as a "Nobody" and playfully asks the responder "Who are you?". Dickinson follows up by adding "Are you nobody too?/Then there is a pair of us!" this helps Dickinson unite with the responder adding the sense of belonging to one another. In the last stanza, the poet shows how oppressive the "somebodies" crowd can be "Don't tell!/They'd advertise – you know?" This also shows the connection that Dickinson has with being a nobody, and the ability to stand out from the crowd. "How dreary to be somebody!" shows how the poet loves to be a nobody, and feels like she belongs. Dickinson frequently uses rhythmic dashes to interrupt the flow, and engage the responder to pause to think and feel about the line. The poet also uses juxtaposition in the line "How public–like a Frog–" These combining elements are not typically considered together, and, thus, more powerfully conveying its meaning. The poem shows that Dickinson is quite content with not connecting with the "somebodies" and that the poet enjoys being an outsider to the rest of the world and feels like she belongs to her own little place. In the picture book, 'The rabbits' by John Marsden & Shaun Tan it shows the perspective of belonging as connecting to the indigenous Aboriginal land, people and culture.

  • 15. Perceptions Why are the perceptions you have of your skills usually different from the perceptions that others have of your skills Why Do Differences in Perception Occur? The way you sense the world–the way you see, hear, smell, touch, and taste–is subjective, uniquely your own. Nobody else sees the world the way you do, and nobody experiences events exactly as you do. The uniqueness of human experience is based largely on differences in perception–"the process of becoming aware of objects and events from the senses" (DeVito, 1986) Perception is subjective, active, and creative. Active perception means that your mind selects, organizes, and interprets that which yousense. So each person is a different video camera, and each person aims the ...

Roles also tend to change with context: in your parents' home you are a son or daughter; in your own home you may be a roommate or a mother or father; in the classroom you are a student; and at work you may be an editor or a manager. Culture and Co–culture The ways people greet each other, position themselves when they talk, and even eat and sleep are all influenced by culture. An intercultural communication researcher, maintains that what people see, hear, taste, touch, and smell is conditioned by their culture. He says that people's perceptions are largely learned; the greater the experiential differences among people, the greater the disparity in their perceptions. Conversely, the more similar their backgrounds, the more similarly they perceive the world. People from different cultures and different countries perceive communication differently. American speakers who are accustomed to a certain level of feedback might find audiences in Finland and Norway to be inexpressive. To complicate matters further, your co–culture also affects your perceptions of the world. Women and men, for example, tend to see the world differently, to communicate about it differently, and even to practice and perceive communication itself differently. Women tend to see talk as relational, as a way to share and understand feelings, whereas men tend to see talk as instrumental, as a way to ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 16. Merleau-Ponty on Perception Merleau–Ponty on Perception In "The world of perception" by Merleau–Ponty, he disagrees with both Weber and Descartes' conception and perception of the world. The book itself largely focuses on Descartes by giving a critique of him through the notion of one self, notion of perception and sensation. Merleau– Ponty gives a critic of Descartes throughout the book; Weber is mentioned in the book, but not extensively like Descartes. The author's argue throughout the lectures by the means of a critique of what he refers to as 'classical world', which is the fundamental attitude underlying one's experience and actions as well as a purely natural– scientific and philosophical enlightenment, especially as it is referred to by Descartes. Throughout the book Merleau–Ponty reminds the readers to rediscover the human experience in different perspectives. For Weber, he believes that natural–sciences are the only avenue to the truth, so the natural sciences can only be explained by means of causes. With Weber inmind, Merleau–Ponty reflects, "whether science does, or ever could, present us with a picture of the world." He adds that, "there could no longer be any meaningful questions outside this picture." Thus, Merleau–Ponty's method is description of a purely natural–scientific account of sensation and explanation of parodies. One of the natural– scientific accounts of sensations is the sense of visual sensation; Descartes thinks that he is explaining visual ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 17. Sensory Perception Sensory Perception PHI 210 Strayer University Sensory Perception PHI 210 The sensory system is a part of the nervous system. It is responsible for processing our sensory information, and it is the way in which we make contact in our everyday lives through our five senses – sight, touch, hearing, smell and taste. (IML Training, 2012) Our sensory receptors allow us to pick up information – ears, eyes, nostrils, tongue and skin. All senses evolve to collect their distinct type of information about our environment and to inform us of our status within it. (Goldstein, 2009) The brain is deeply connected to sensory data creating memories. Thinking and memory go hand in hand. When life senses filter our brain, our senses link to ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The early wiring of the brain and sensory helps explains why some people are born without a sense and can later regain it. An example would be deaf people receiving cochlear implants later in their lives, causing difficulty integrating the new sensory information. (Humphries, 2011) There are reasons to trust the accuracy or inaccuracy of sensory data. When considering that a person touches a hot stove or iron, our sensory information of feeling immediately messages our brain to remove our hand. There will be other incidents where our sensory appears to be working well; environmental influences can distort interpretation of data that are being sent to us.

  • 19. Perception And Perception Of A Human Mind This topic is specifically interesting because I want to do a research on how human mind perceives things as it happens, and the kinds of role that perceptions play in human mind. Perception of things cannot be true at all the time. It might be illusional. Perception of a certain element/event of life is a natural cause. It is an instantaneous action inside the brain's functional parts. Consequently, it gives awareness or consciousness to the mind. The topic is specifically relevant today because perception is a natural cause, it cannot be evaluated to its full potential. There are always flaw in decoding perception of a human mind. The significance of this topic is to inform people about direct and indirect form of perception. Visual perception is a learning process which can be modified at particular instant of time. Some of perspectives to support the essay is to inquire how does human perceive information with development of mind via multi sensory perception, self–awareness/consciousness, and indirect perception.

  • 20. Perception And Perception Of Perception Perception has a few definitions; the most frequently used definition is what we become aware of through our senses. However, perception is not just what our senses tell us, it is our reaction to the feelings we sense. Perception just happens; it is something we cannot control. The mind tells us how we feel before we even realize what is happening. When people say they are good judges of character, they base their decisions on what they initially see. Appearance plays a huge role in how we perceive someone to be. For instance, a long, shaggy haired man, who wears dirty clothes, brings our mind to think that this man is lazy, or even homeless. Maybe this man is homeless because of his laziness, the specifics do not hold much value but the point speaks volumes about how we judge, or 'perceive' something. The judgments are not reserved just for people; we judge objects and other people's thoughts as well. When walking down the street, the eyes wander, and many things draw their attention, and the objects they see are immediately deemed safe, unsafe, fun, not fun, etc. Thoughts are similar, we do not believe someone's thoughts are the same as our own, we think differently.Perception is unique to each individual. People do not perceive things the same as their neighbors, and vice versa. The truth is, perception is something that develops over a lifespan.

For example, when you hear your alarm clock, the actual sound you hear is the sensation. How you construe the meaning of the alarm is your interpretation. If it is 7 a.m. on a weekday, you would probably interpret the alarm as a signal to get moving and begin the day. However, the same alarm may have a different meaning on a holiday. You might perceive yourself as an absurd for setting the alarm, or you might snicker at the alarm and roll over.

Perception is how you can see the world around you, how you experience the world around. There are two things that are included in perception.

The second is how you respond to the environment and what action is taken in and how you respond to the information you are taking in.

Fast reaction times can produce big rewards, for example, you're a goalkeeper in a soccer match and you end up saving a blistering soccer ball from entering the goal. In this instant slow reaction times may come with consequences. When the goalkeeper realizes the ball is blistering towards them, there is visual information that has to be processed and decisions regarding a correct course of action. The brain then needs to send many signals to various muscles. Feet begin to move, body stands taller, hands might travel in front of the face, and eyes may close shut suddenly, along with many more processes.

Psychophysics is the study of the relationship between the physical properties of a stimulus and the perception of that stimulus. If the relation between a given stimulus parameter and perception were always one–to–one, it would be easy to predict the effects of changing one or more stimulus parameters. Therefore, psychophysics investigates how much of stimuli we can detect and how we detect differences between stimuli in the environment with our sensory systems, including vision, auditory, taste, smell, and pain. Gestalt psychology is a school of thought that looks at the human mind and behavior as a whole. When trying to make sense of the world around us, Gestalt psychology suggests that we do not simply focus on every small component.

It is a stronger form of interpersonal bond than an association. It is a link between people who show trust and altruism with one another without the placement of sexual or physical intimacy that commonly happens in a romantic relationship. Friends tend to share common interests, demographics, backgrounds, and traits of the self. However, before we get to know a person, we use perception to categorize them into a certain role. It often causes us to assume that the other party is superior or inferior to us. We do this more often than not without even realizing we've engaged in perception. Perception played a very large part in the first meeting of my best friend, Cinda, and I. In Chapter 4: Interpersonal Perception (Floyd, 2011), there are many examples of the ways in which people instantly perceive another person as being one way or another. This exact thing happened when I met Cinda. Our perceptions of one another were not complimentary or nice, in fact, we were practically enemies at the time. Negativity bias, or the tendency to weigh negative information more heavily than positive (Floyd, 2011), would describe what we felt with each other.

  • 26. Perception And Perception Of Perception To know how perception interacts with the brain to create reality we first have to better understand perception. Perception is the active process of selecting, organizing, and interpreting the information brought to the brain by the senses. Perception is an important part of creating reality because, your reality is determined by your memories, beliefs, culture, life experiences, as well as your senses and perception. Although sensation and perception work together to help create our reality they are two very different things. Sensation is the physical observation of an object using one of the five senses. Perception is what interprets the sense and understands the meaning. Perception gives us the ability to make sense out of the sensations. For instance, seeing the light (sensation) is different from determining its color (perception). Another example is that feeling the coldness of the environment is different from perceiving that winter is coming. Also, hearing a sound is different from perceiving the music being played. Our senses and perception work together for us to be able to identify and create meaning from information, and play an important role in creating our reality. When our perception is hindered we are unable to understand the information we sense, causing a false reality. Sometimes we are deceived and cannot tell what is real and what's not real.

It is interesting as the shopkeeper stated that it was rare and unusual yet, the 8th juror brought the same one from a pawn shop near the boy's house. This contradiction therefore questions the credibility of the shopkeeper's accounts and brings a shadow of a doubt to this case.

  • 28. Perceptions And Perceptions Of Consumer Behavior Essay In attitude–behaviour relationships, the Theory of Reasoned Action states that consumer behaviours are constructed by their attitudes, and the attitude itself is the result of the consumers' perception (Fishbein & Ajzen, 1975). With regards to greenwashing, research has found that this attitude–behaviour relationship could manipulate the perception of consumer (see table 2 for perceptions and explanations), for instance, perceived deception (Newell et al., 1998), perceived scepticism (Albayrak et al., 2011), perceived inconsistency (Gallicano, 2011), perceived distrust, and/or perceived risk (Chen & Chang, 2013). Consumers motivations for purchasing green products differ and may even be contradictory (Cleveland, Kalamas, & Laroche, 2005). However, to some degree, the motivations are thought to influence consumer purchasing behaviour and perception (Albayrak et al., 2011). If the consumer's negative perceptions of falsely claimed green products are correlated, it corresponds to Oliver's (1980) Expectancy Disconfirmation Theory, as well as Fishbein's Multi–attribute Model which also employs three components of attitude. Firstly, in Fishbein's Multi–attribute Model are 'salient beliefs', referencing the opinions an individual may acquire during the evaluation of goods or services.

Perception is "the mental activity of interpreting the impressions received through the senses of sight, hearing, tasting, feeling and smelling" (MacMillan and Powell, 1973). In other words, it is a process of taking information about the environment and giving it meaning. How the brain attaches meaning to the sensory information? The understanding of the mechanisms of this process was discussed widely among philosophers in the past, but because of its complexity it is still a popular topic in contemporary psychology. One of the most popular issue is visual perception. Some people say that vision is our most dominant sense. Without direct contact, "from the light that enters our eyes to the complex cognitive processes that follow, we derive most of our information about what things are, where they are, and how they move from our vision" (Wade, Swanson 2013). The process of seeing is directly connected with our brain by a light–sensitive membrane in the back of the eye, called the retina. The lens of the eye focuses light on the layer of cells in retina, subsequently light is converted into neuronal signals, processed and sent to the primary and secondary visual cortex of the brain.

For example, if your friend calls you a "bone head". On the other hand, second order realities cannot reside in objects or events but rather in our minds. It involves our attaching meaning to first order things or situations. For instance, your friend is being critical is an example of second order realities.

Interpretation is providing interpretations of the behavior, Lastly, ask for clarification from the person about the behavior and interpretations.

The biological process of perception can help explain this definition; what exactly does it mean that the brain interprets stimuli from the environment and makes it into what we see and hear? According to biologists, the process begins with stimuli, usually in the form of photons, vibrations or chemical reactions from the outside world, being picked up by the sensory systems. The stimuli is detected by a sensory neuron located on the surface of the body. This neuron converts the stimuli's light, sound, heat, etc. into action potentials. The action potential changes the membrane permeability of the neuron which allows it to transform into electric signs. The signs are conducted to a primary processing area and elaborated on eventually being converted into corresponding information regarding color, shape, shade, etc. Next, this new information is brought to the thalamus (usually) where it is linked to older data containing similar experiences to form a complete message. The message is carried to its specific cortical center to become perception. Therefore, perception is actually a message constructed using outside inputs, inner–neuron processes and past, relevant information stored in the brain.

These personality traits might have cause Kennedy cause to be a more effective leader over someone who was considered a passive–positive or active –negative president. Both passive–positive and action–negative personalities have low self–esteem and are equally driven by a longing to be accepted. The difference between the two is that passive–positive types are somewhat optimistic were as action–negative types are super aggressive. These personality traits could be considered as weaknesses.

This involves more than just the stimulus or environment in which the image is presented. When an image is examined, there are indirect and direct forces that play a role in its analysis. The actual image that the eyes visualize does not match up completely with what a person will perceive. What a person sees is a complex relationship between many variables including their past experiences, memories, and personalities (Zakia 64).There is typically a seamless connection between what a person sees, and what a person is looking to see (Zakia 64). This idea can be better explained in the variations of responses given when people look at a particular photograph. The different interpretations can be small or great depending on the audience. The variation is caused by the different past experiences and feelings within each individual. A percept is used to explain what a person sees and experiences (Zakia 65). This means that a percept is directly related to a specific person's perception . While many people are unaware of this, it is important to identify that this is a process, not a single action. It is impossible to describe an individual's percept exactly because there is no way to correctly verbalize it (Zakia 65).
