P‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‍age1: Following the manner in which the textbook illustrates how visual information is processed in the brain, summarize how sensory information is organized into a perceptual and recognizable pattern. How do cultural and societal expectations and/or experiences influence the formation of our perception? Explain how long-term memory plays a role in our perception of the world. Page2: In our text, the author describes attention as “selecting certain stimuli from among many and focusing cognitive resources on those selected” (Kellogg, 2015, p. 69). We are constantly bombarded with stimuli coming into our brains and have to select which one(s) we attend to. Why do we select certain stimuli and not others? Compare and contrast ‘selective’ and ‘divided’ attention. Page 3 and 4: First, watch the Selective Attention Test (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJG698U2Mvo) After watching the video, in the paper, address the following: Write the number of passes you counted by the white-shirted players. Recall if you noticed anything else in this video: What was it and when did you notice it? Explain how the early selection process would explain your results. I‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‍nfer if your results would have been different had a polar bear been used. Explain why or why not, using the early selection theory. Explain, using the key concepts on attention from Chapter 3 of the text, if the single-capacity theory would lead one to expect a difference in detecting a polar bear or a gorilla.
