Question

PERCEPTION AND SENSATION

-Debate why many focus on perception as a tool for action and survival instead of focusing only on perception as a tool for developing mental representations.

-Discuss the ways in which ability and expectations can affect perception.

-Discuss the major functions of motion perception and the ways in which we can perceive motion.

-Describe real and apparent motion, what the aperture problem is, and how the visual system “solves” this problem.

-Detail how lesioning, transcranial magnetic stimulation and microstimulation have been used to study how neurons signal motion.

-State the major principles of the corollary discharge theory of motion perception, and summarize the behavioral and physiological support for the theory.

-Discuss behavioral and physiological research on implied motion, and relate this to the concept of representational momentum.

-Discuss developmental research on motion preference in newborn babies.

Answer 1

-many focuses on perception as a tool for aaction and survival instead of focusing only on perception as a tool for developing mental representation because in some cases or we can say from experince perception works better tool rather than other this causes a barrier between people to people .But primarily speaking a menatl represenatation works as our toll for action and survival because we all are controlled by our mind

-ability and expectation can broadly eaffect perception because what we peerceive is what comes from our inner mind and hence we find that we are in a good condition to work via our mind

-we can perceive the motion in different ways as how someone is moving is there any disturbance in his or her motion that causes other to think in a different way

-there are various aperture that changes our perception they are really helpful in doing so as how someone walk how they talk etc real motion is really what someone behave or show naturally but appaenat is othe way of showing the disturbance in someone's mind
