Sight

Vision is the most studied of all the senses
![Page 7: Sensation and Perception - Home - Scott County … › userfiles › 2974 › Classes › 38714...Sensation and Perception Chapter 8, Section 2&3 Ishihara Color Test 74 - 21 Sensation](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042402/5f11ef23efd9a5421d3512cf/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Light enters eye through pupilLens focuses light on the retina in the back of the eye
![Page 8: Sensation and Perception - Home - Scott County … › userfiles › 2974 › Classes › 38714...Sensation and Perception Chapter 8, Section 2&3 Ishihara Color Test 74 - 21 Sensation](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042402/5f11ef23efd9a5421d3512cf/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Retina made up of two types of light-sensitive cells
Rods – require less light to stimulate (night vision)Cones – require more light than rods before they
respond (less of these types of cells)

Retinal cells change light energy into neuronal impulsesImpulses transmitted down optic nerve to the brainBrain interprets the impulses in the visual cortex
located in the occipital lobe at the back of the brain

Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation known collectively as the electromagnetic spectrum
An object’s color depends on which wavelengths of light reach your eye from the visible spectrum

Hearing
![Page 12: Sensation and Perception - Home - Scott County … › userfiles › 2974 › Classes › 38714...Sensation and Perception Chapter 8, Section 2&3 Ishihara Color Test 74 - 21 Sensation](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042402/5f11ef23efd9a5421d3512cf/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Sound waves from the air pass through various bones until they reach the inner ear
The inner ear contains tiny hairlike cells that change the change the waves into neuronal signals
These signals are transmitted through the auditory nerve to the brain

Taste
![Page 14: Sensation and Perception - Home - Scott County … › userfiles › 2974 › Classes › 38714...Sensation and Perception Chapter 8, Section 2&3 Ishihara Color Test 74 - 21 Sensation](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042402/5f11ef23efd9a5421d3512cf/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Chemical senseAppropriate chemical molecules must stimulate
proper receptors in the taste buds of tongueReceptors for sour, salty, bitter and sweetThis information is then relayed to the brain along
with data about texture and temperature

![Page 16: Sensation and Perception - Home - Scott County … › userfiles › 2974 › Classes › 38714...Sensation and Perception Chapter 8, Section 2&3 Ishihara Color Test 74 - 21 Sensation](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042402/5f11ef23efd9a5421d3512cf/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Chemical senseAppropriate gaseous molecules must come into contact with smell receptors in the noseMolecules enter as vapors and reach special membrane in upper part of nasal passagesMessages are sent through olfactory nerve to the brain

Receptors in skin provide information about pressure, warmth, cold and pain
Sensitivity varies across body due to number of receptors located in each piece of skin
![Page 20: Sensation and Perception - Home - Scott County … › userfiles › 2974 › Classes › 38714...Sensation and Perception Chapter 8, Section 2&3 Ishihara Color Test 74 - 21 Sensation](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042402/5f11ef23efd9a5421d3512cf/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
KinesthesisThe sense of movement and body position
Helps to maintain posture and balance – otherwise, movements would be jerky and uncoordinated

Absolute Threshold
The weakest amount of a stimulus that a person can detect half the time
![Page 22: Sensation and Perception - Home - Scott County … › userfiles › 2974 › Classes › 38714...Sensation and Perception Chapter 8, Section 2&3 Ishihara Color Test 74 - 21 Sensation](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042402/5f11ef23efd9a5421d3512cf/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Difference Threshold
The smallest change in a stimulus that can be detected half the time
![Page 23: Sensation and Perception - Home - Scott County … › userfiles › 2974 › Classes › 38714...Sensation and Perception Chapter 8, Section 2&3 Ishihara Color Test 74 - 21 Sensation](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042402/5f11ef23efd9a5421d3512cf/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Weber’s LawSmall changes to stimuli are more noticeable at small levels(slight change in the volume of music is more noticeable when already listening at a low level)
Small changes to stimuli are less noticeable at large levels(slight change in the volume of music is more noticeable when already listening at the highest levels)

Signal-Detection TheoryStudies relations between motivation, sensitivity, and decision making in determining the presence or absence of a stimulus
Involves recognizing some stimulus against a background of competing stimuli

Subliminal MessagesBrief auditory or visual messages that are presented below the
absolute threshold
(means there is a less than 50% chance they will be perceived)

Monocular Depth CuesHints that help us perceiving distance and depth that can be used with just one eye
Size – bigger is nearerRelative height – further away appear on higher planeLight and shadowsInterposition – when viewing overlapping images, we know the whole object is in the front Linear Perspective – parallel
lines converge when stretched into the distance
![Page 29: Sensation and Perception - Home - Scott County … › userfiles › 2974 › Classes › 38714...Sensation and Perception Chapter 8, Section 2&3 Ishihara Color Test 74 - 21 Sensation](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042402/5f11ef23efd9a5421d3512cf/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Binocular Depth CuesHints that help us perceive distance or depth that depend upon both eyes
Convergence – our eyes turn inward to look at nearby objectsRetinal disparity – eyes actually see their own, slightly different picture. A large difference = close objectSmall difference = far object
