...Subliminal and Supraliminal Perception/Extra- Sensory Perception Margin, Valkenburgh Mergillano February 29, 2016 Dr. Evangeline M. De Jesus / General Psychology I. INTRODUCTION Perception is a process that combines both sensing and interpreting. Information from the outside world comes through our senses. The information is then interpreted, and this interpretation gives meaning to what is sensed. The process of interpreting or giving meaning to the stimulus received by the senses. The stimulus energy transmitted to the brain by the nerve impulses. Then the mind interprets the stimulus. Thus, sensation is a prerequisite to perception. Sensation is to the sense organ while perception is to the brain. Sensation is simple and perception a complex process in which understanding intervenes. Perception is preceded by sensation. The number of our sensory systems will give rise to the same number of perceptual systems. We live in a visually-oriented world where almost everything that can give meaning to us stimulated our sense of sight. Scientists believe the human brain is the most complex structure in the universe. In addition to ruling perception, your brain controls your moods, memory, moments, body function and imagination. If the primary function of sensation is to take in information, the primary function of perception is to help us make sense of that information. Research on hypnosis has confirmed that unconscious influences are possible...

...SENSATION AND PERCEPTION REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE (FOREIGN) I. PSYCHOLOGY (Douglas A. Bernstein, Edward J. Roy, Thomas K. Skull, Christopher D. Wickens) BIOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF PSYCHOLOGY CONSCIOUSNESS MOTIVATION EMOTION PERCEPTION SENSATION The diagram above illustrates some of the relationships between different aspects of psychology through sensation. What happens if people are denied on this contact, if they deprived of stimulation form the senses? However, recent research has made it more difficult to draw a clear line between sensation and perception. That research shows that the process of interpreting sensations begins in the sense organs themselves and continues into the brain. Even previous experience can shape what you sense, causing you not to notice. Sensory Systems The senses gather information about the world by detecting various forms of energy, such as sound, light, heat, and physical pressure. For example, the eyes detect light energy, the ears detect the of sound , and the skin detects the energy of heat and pressure. Humans depend primarily on vision, hearing, and the skin senses to gain information about the world: they depend less than other animals on smell and taste. There are also senses that provide information to the brain from the rest of the body. All of these senses must detect stimuli, encode them into neural activity, and transfer this coded information to the brain. Steps in Sensation At each step...

...Summary: Chapter 6 This chapter talks about the sensation and perception, we can make contrast between these two points. The sensation is the process by which our sensory receptors and nervous system receive and represent stimulus energies from our environment, that is to say the brain Receives input from the sensory organs; on the other hand the perception is he process of organizing and interpreting sensory information, enabling us to recognize meaningful objects and events, that is to say he brain makes sense out of the input from sensory organs. Is important know about thresholds refers to stimulus intensity needed to detect a stimulus and the sensory adaption to detect novelty in our surroundings; our senses tune out a constant stimulus. After that the chapter talks about the vision and important things from this like waves of electromagnetic radiation, or our eyes and their respond to some of these waves an finally how our brain turns these energy wave sensations into colors. Hearing is another important point to understand as sound waves reach the ear with different frequency, amplitude and complexity. Finally the text explains others sense of the body like the touch, pain taste and smell to analyze the behavior in the body in different situation in our lives. Application I like from this chapter about important senses and think from these extraordinary things like for example pain and the behavior in our body`s and as the biological, psychological and social...

...* * In John Locke’s The Casual Theory of Perception the idea of perception versus what is real is examined and analyzed in great detail. The main focus of this writing is that there is an outside world (made up of real and wholesome objects), and there are ideas about the world (perceptions produced in us by the objects). This main focus is repeated and explained in multiple aspects and ways within Locke’s writing. Going into detail, Locke feels, or rather feels that he knows, that there are three sorts of qualities to be considered in respects to bodies (physical objects). Firstly, there are Primary qualities – otherwise known as real or original qualities - which include certain physical properties such as bulk, size, figure, number, situation, and motion. The reason Locke calls these real or original is because these properties are there regardless of our perceptions and regardless of if we are there. These characteristics are within the object itself, independent of our existence. An example of this would be a boulder. The boulder is made out of elements and has a large bulkiness in the shape of a cylinder. While we can see this, it is an inherent part of the boulder, and will not change based on our experiences around the boulder. Secondly, there are primary qualities – otherwise known as sensible qualities – which include the characteristics of color, taste, smell, and sound. These are all the qualities given off by an object but...

Try the techniques you located in your Internet search. Provide a brief description of what happened in your experience. Be sure to answer the two questions below the matrix also. Do you think meditation leads to heightened sensation and perception? Explain why or why not. On the surface, it seems to. We already know that a blind man has a better sense of hearing or smelling. So, senses can be “heightened.” Meditation seems to be a practice of sensitivity. It is done in silence so that you may hear the slightest sound, with your eyes closed so that you may see the dimmest light, and the most comfortable posture so that you may feel the slightest pain. If you truly believe we are evolutionary creatures and you know that our bodies function in cycles of work and rest, you should believe that there should be a cycle of concentration and meditation. Concentration is the stage of perception where we are filling up our senses with maximum chatter and we are responding frame by frame and in fact, some chatter can be so massive that it masks the other chatter out, this principle applies to sound as well. A big boom will mask and completely destroy the chances of a tiny squeak being heard. So, within our psychology, our mind is using a certain amount of resources to use for sensations and responses. And just like after a good work...
