Perception Perception is the process of receiving information about and making sense of the world around us. It involves deciding which information to notice, how to categorize this information and how to interpret it within the framework of existing knowledge. It is the process of selection & organization of environmental stimuli and interpreting them to provide meaningful experiences for the perceiver. Factors influencing Perception: A number of factors operate to shape and sometimes distort perception. These factors can reside in the perceiver, in the object or target being perceived or in the context of the situation in which the perception is made. The Perceptual process 1. Sensation: An individuals ability to detect stimuli in the immediate environment. 2. Selection: The process a person uses to eliminate some of the stimuli that have been sensed and to retain others for further processing 3.
