The document summarizes key concepts about sensation, perception, and consciousness. It discusses how sensation is the process of receiving stimulus energies from the environment through sensory receptors, while perception involves interpreting and organizing sensory information. It also examines different states of consciousness like sleep, dreams, hypnosis, and how psychoactive drugs can alter consciousness.
The document describes a perception experiment where one partner closes their eyes, pinches their nose, and tries to identify flavors of jelly beans placed in their mouth by the other partner. It then switches partners and repeats the experiment.
The document also discusses several topics related to perception, including selective attention, perceptual illusions, depth perception using binocular and monocular cues, motion perception, and perceptual constancy.
It describes experiments on sensory deprivation and perceptual adaptation, and discusses the concepts of perceptual set and how context can affect perception.

Common Sense Based Joint Training Of Human Activity Recogizersvein
This document outlines a study that presents a joint probabilistic model to improve activity detection by reasoning about object use, physical actions, and activities together. Sensors collected data from researchers performing 12 activities using 30 objects over 2 weeks. A dynamic Bayesian network model was used to infer the current action and object being used from the sensor data. Results showed the joint model produced better activity detection than models reasoning separately about object use, actions, and activities, and learned action models with less labeling than conventional approaches.
The document discusses various senses and their mechanisms. It describes:
1. The two factors required for sensation - a stimulus and receptors sensitive to that stimulus. Vision depends on light entering the eyes and being processed in the brain.
2. The structure of the eye including the coats, iris, pupil, lens and retina containing rods and cones. Hearing involves sound waves triggering vibrations processed through the outer, middle and inner ear.
3. Other senses like smell rely on receptors in the nose detecting gases and tastes are mediated by receptors on the tongue that send signals to the brain.
Sensation is the process of stimulation of sense organs resulting in neural impulses to the brain, while perception is the brain's interpretation of sensory information. Perception involves organizing, interpreting, and understanding sensory stimuli. There are two types of depth cues that aid depth perception: monocular or pictorial cues that can be perceived with one eye, and binocular cues that require two eyes. Monocular cues include relative size, superposition, height in field, linear perspective, texture gradient, relative clarity, light and shadow, and motion parallax.
Sensation is the process by which our senses become aware of stimuli in the environment, such as sights, sounds, smells, tastes, and touches. Perception is what our brain does with this sensory information to form concepts and interpretations of these stimuli, like recognizing a tree, a voice, or the smell of baking cupcakes. However, our experiences of these stimuli result from neuronal reactions in the brain, not properties of the stimuli themselves. Each of our senses converts different types of energy, like light or sound waves, into electrochemical patterns in the brain. The brain's representations of objects do not duplicate them directly but are based on our sensory experiences.
The document discusses the senses of sensation and perception. It describes the key elements of sensation as a stimulus and receptor. The main senses are identified as vision, hearing, smell, taste, and touch, along with the sensory receptors involved in each sense. Perception is defined as the interpretation of sensory information in the brain.
The document defines perception and contrasts it with logic. It defines perception as knowledge gained through the senses by observing situations, things, or people. In contrast, logic is used to distinguish correct from incorrect reasoning by analyzing gathered information. The document also contains questions about how others perceive oneself and how one would like to be perceived.
Sensation is the process by which our sensory receptors and nervous system receive and represent stimulus energy from our environment. Perception involves organizing and interpreting sensory information to recognize meaningful objects and events. Psychophysics studies the relationship between physical stimulus characteristics and our psychological experience of them. Thresholds refer to the minimum levels of stimulation needed for detection, and signal detection theory examines how we detect faint stimuli.
Psychology is defined as the scientific study of behavior and mental processes. Some key points about the history and methods of psychology include:
- Wilhelm Wundt is considered the founder of experimental psychology for establishing the first psychology laboratory in 1879.
- Structuralism and functionalism were two early schools that focused on discovering the structure of the mind and understanding thinking, motivation, and learning respectively.
- Methods of psychology include introspection, observation, experiments, surveys, and statistical analysis to understand, predict, and control behavior.
- There are many branches and applications of psychology such as developmental, abnormal, clinical, educational, and industrial psychology.
Sensation and perception involve two processes - sensation, which is the detection of stimuli by the senses, and perception, which is the interpretation and organization of sensory information. Sensation occurs through sensory receptors in organs like the eyes, ears, and skin that detect stimuli and transmit neural signals. Perception involves higher-level cognitive processes in the brain that allow us to understand and make sense of sensory information. The document provides details on the sensory systems for vision, hearing, smell, taste, and touch and how stimuli are detected and transmitted by receptors in each system to be perceived.
The document is a presentation on sensation and perception in psychology. It defines sensation as the simple experience received through the senses, while perception involves higher-level cognitive processing to interpret sensations and derive meaning. It discusses the different types of sensations based on the senses, as well as factors that influence perception like similarity, proximity, and mental sets. The document also distinguishes between illusions, which involve mistaken perceptions but are still related to a real stimulus, and hallucinations, which involve perceiving something without an external stimulus being present.

- Absolute threshold, which is the minimum stimulus needed for detection
- Difference threshold and Weber's law, which explain how small changes are detected
- Top-down and bottom-up processing, and how knowledge and stimulus features influence perception
- Sensory adaptation, where sensitivity decreases to constant stimuli over time.
The document discusses various topics related to sensation and perception including:
- How different senses like vision, hearing, taste, smell, and touch work through sensory receptors and neural pathways
