Question

Where do individual differences seem to arise in the way we perceive the world? Describe the combined roles of vision and the vestibular apparatus in a coordinated act in sports, such as a second baseman's double play, a pole vault, or a turnaround jump shot. What are the differences and similarities in the roles of the two senses?

Answer 1

Where do individual differences seem to arise in the way we perceive the world?

Individual differences seem to arise in the sense that our beliefs (past experiences and what we think we learned from them) are the basis of our perspective or perceptions. We seek to validate these beliefs through our focus of attention, which creates our perception. And these perceptions of ours are different than others. The reason being: different people have different experiences & different beliefs and thus they have different perceptions.

The combined roles of vison & vestibular apparatus in sports and their differences and similarities can be understood from below description:

The vestibular apparatus or receptors lie in the inner ear next to the auditory cochlea. During any sports, they help players by detecting rotational motion (head turns), linear motion (translations), and tilts of the head relative to gravity and transduce these motions into neural signals that can be sent to the brain.

The inner ears need the eyes (Vision apparatus), simply because the eyes are how people best sense and judge the world around them. The vestibular system works off the information the eyes and brain give them, helping eyes (vision system) with stability and position whether other players are standing still or in motion.
