Meaning of PerceptionMeaning of Perception
Perception may be defined as the
process by which an individual selects,

meaningful and coherent picture of the
environment in which he lives.

Perceptual SelectivityPerceptual Selectivity
Though people are exposed to several
stimuli , they tend to select only a few at a
given point of time, this is perceptual
selectivity.
Subliminal Perception : when the stimuli
is so subtle that an individual may not even
be conscious that he is exposed to some
stimulus.

External Attention FactorsExternal Attention Factors
Intensity
According to the intensity principle of attention, the intensity of an external stimulus determines its probability of being perceived.
Example:
Light Colour Bright Colour
Chapter-5 15
Size:A larger object is more likely to be noticed than a smaller object.Example:
Which you can read fast?
God is great God is great
External Attention Factors
Chapter-5 16
Contrast: According to the principles of contrast, the stimuli that contradict most with the background or the expectations of people receive maximum attention.
Example: Which white square is smaller?
External Attention Factors
Chapter-5 17
Motion:
People gives more attention to moving objects than the stationery objects.
Example:
Moving object Stationery object

Repetition
The more number of
times a stimulus is
repeated, the more it
is likely to be noticed
Novelty and Familiarity:
New objects in a
familiar situation or
familiar objects in a
new situation draw the perceiver’s attention.

Learning and Perception:
Learning by itself plays a major role in developing the perceptual set.
Example:
Hilly

Process after a stimulus is
received.
Perceptual Organization

Perceptual OrganizationPerceptual Organization
Figure-ground:
In perceiving stimuli or phenomena, the
tendency is to keep certain phenomena
in focus and other phenomena in
background.
Chapter-5 25
An individual tends to group several stimuli together into a recognizable pattern.
Various forms Closure
Continuity
Proximity
Similarity
Perceptual GroupingPerceptual Grouping
Chapter-5 26
The perception of elements like size, shape, color, brightness and location of an object remains constant and does not change from individual to individual.Example: Photograph
Perceptual ContextIt provides meaning and value to objects, events, situation and other people in the environment.
Perceptual ConstancyPerceptual Constancy
Chapter-5 27

threatening situation in people.
Perceptual Defense
