UNIT 4: SENSATION AND PERCEPTION Sensation: your window to the world Sensation a process by which our sensory receptors and nervous system receive and represent stimulus (or physical) energy and encode it as neural signals. Our sensory and perceptual processes work together to help us sort out complex processes Bottom-Up Processing analysis that begins with the sense receptors and works up to the brain?s integration of sensory information Top-Down Processing information processing guided by higher-level mental processes as when we construct perceptions drawing on our experience and expectations The Absolute Threshold minimum stimulation needed to detect a particular stimulus 50% of the time. It is the intensity at which we can detect a stimulus half of the time

Mental Models (https://jamesclear.com/mental-models) You can train your brain to think better. One of the best ways to do this is to expand the set of mental models (https://jamesclear.com/mental-models) you use to think. Let me explain what I mean by sharing a story about a world-class thinker. I first discovered what a mental model was and how useful the right one could be while I was reading a story about Richard Feynman, the famous physicist. Feynman received his undergraduate degree from MIT and his Ph.D. from

Cognition: Memory

Introduction: Memories are what make us Memory: Information that is stored and has stayed over a period of time Just regular people have the ability to remember amazing things Some could remember parts of images shown 17 years earlier Information Processing Model: takes after a computer ? 3 parts Encoding: How information gets into our brain Storage: How we hold onto the information or store it like a hard drive Retrieval: How we get the information back from our brain like in computer files Connectionism: Another theory to how our memories work, which states that memories are made of interconnected neural networks, and memories are made of three stages Brief sensory memory like a quick image shown and then fading away Short-Term memory: where it?s encoded through rehearsal
