Sensation and Perception<\/span><\/h3>\n
<\/div>\n
Sensation refers to the ability to notice a stimulus and sometimes turn it into a personal experience.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Perception (perception) is the giving of meaning to a sensation noticed. Example: a possible sensation is feeling a hand touch you; perception is understanding this sensation: is it an expression of affection or is it customs looking for suspicious objects? Sensation and perception are central: everything we feel, think and do depends on them. There are five scientific methods for studying sensation and perception:<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
    \n
  • \n
    Thresholds For example: What is the softest (loudest) sound you can hear (without damage)?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n
    Scales – measuring private experiences.’Quale’ (mv. ‘qualia’) is the philosophical term for a personal conscious experience of sensation or perception: do you see the same color of red as I do or do you taste the same flavor?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n
    The signal detection theory – measuring difficult decisionsFor example: Is the abnormality on the mammogram really breast cancer or something benign?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n
    Sensory neuroscience – How does our perception of the world depend as much on the activity of our sensory nerves as on the world itself? For example: After biting into a pepper, a burning sensation develops in the mouth. Yet there is no temperature difference compared to the moment before eating the pepper.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n
    Neuroimaging – a picture of the brain<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Thinking feeling always has the limitation of previous experiences plus the translation the brain makes with all the possibility of distortion of meaning.<\/span><\/p>\n

    <\/div>\n
    \n

    For example: a picture of a house can be presented to one eye and a picture of a face to the other eye. The result is “binocular rivalry”: images competing for perception. Sometimes you see the house, sometimes the face but never both.Discernment vs. Awareness<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
