Sensation and Perception of Psychology

Behavior is the result of the integration of information acquired from the environment, its analysis and the interpretation and the corresponding reaction or response made. We have seen how the different body receptors react to specific kind of energy (the stimulus) generating nerve impulses. We have dealt with the dimension of each sensory experiences -visual, auditory, gustatory olfactory, tactual, kinesthetic, and equilabratory.

Evidence propounded by the different theories serve as compromise explanation to substantiate all facts or speculations about each sensory process input (perception) including many perceptual experiences dependent on one or several senses- and including ESP- a subject thathas aroused many a “tempest in a teapot” because of the speculative and unsettled issues involved in its study.
