just noticeable difference jnd minimum difference in magnitude between two stimuli before one can perceive this difference Weber's law there is a constant ratio between the change in stimulus magnitude needed to produce a jnd (higher stimulus will need a larger difference to produce a jnd) Signal detection theory changes in out perception of the sam stimuli depending on both internal and external context (how loud would someone need to yell your name in a crowd for you to hear their name?...

AP Psychology Sensation & Perception Terminology Sensation the raw data of experience; sensory stimulation; example are eyes only register light energy and ears only register wave energy Difference threshold Just Noticeable Difference (JND); the smallest change in stimulation that you can detect 50% of the time; differs from one person to the other (and from moment to moment); tells us the flexibility of sensory systems Perception the mental process of sorting, identifying, and arranging raw s...

Psychology 101 Chapter 4Sensation - correct answer simple stimulation of a sense organ perception - correct answer the organization, identification, and interpretation of a sensation in order to form a mental representation transduction - correct answer occurs when many sensors in the body convert physical signals from the environment into encoded neural signals sent to the central nervous system psychophysics - correct answer methods that measure the strength of a stimulus and the ...

Absolute threshold - The minimum stimulus intensity required to activate a sensory receptor 50% of the time. Difference threshold (JND) - The minimum noticeable difference between two sensory stimuli 50% of the time. Weber's law - States that two stimuli must differ by a constant proportion for difference to be perceptible. Spotlight model - Visual attention can shift within the visual field but can only be focused on a single target. Phonological loop - A component o...
