3. I define perception as the way we view things about the world and others. The five stages of perception are stimulation, organization, interpretation-evaluation, memory, and recall.

This is why I can see why there could be things neither we or others could …show more content…

5. The four processes are self-fulfilling prophecy, primary-recency, stereotyping, and attribution of control. Self-fulfilling prophecy is where through one’s actions and thoughts something can come true. Primary-recency is where your perceptions of something or someone can be affected by first impression or more recent information. Stereotyping is where you get your ideas on others based on a fixed idea, that is usually inaccurate. Attribution of control is where you make a judgement based on the level of control someone has over their
