The messages he or she sent and listenedto would depend on how the person perceived the world, on how the person sized up thespecific situation, onwhat thepersonthought of thepeoplewithwhomheor sheinteracted.There were six perceptual processes: implicit personal theory, self-fulfillingprophecy, perceptual accentuation, primacy-recency, consistency, and attribution.
