How Do We Construct the Outside World?

• Sensation – detecting physical energy from the environment and encoding it as neural signals

• Perception – the process of selecting, organising and interpreting sensory information, enabling us to recognize meaningful objects and events.

• SENSATION PERCEPTION = MEANING

Selective Attention

• At any moment, our awareness focuses (like a flashlight beam in the dark) on a limited aspect of all that we experience.

• Some researchers believe that ever second our five senses take in 11,000,000 bits of information (while we are conscious of 40 of them)

Inattentional Blindness

• Failing to see visible objects when our attention is directed elsewhere

Psychology and Optical Illusions

• Psychologists LOVE visual illusions, because they reflect visions preeminence among our senses

• Fun Fact: When vision competes with one of our other senses vision usually wins (this is called visual capture)

Perceptual Consistency

• Perceiving objects as unchanging (e.g., having consistent lightness, colour, shape, and size) even as illumination and retinal images change

Are the lines straight or bent?

Perceptual Set• Our experiences assumptions and

expectations may give us a mental predisposition that greatly influences what we perceive
