UNIT 4/SENSATIONS & PERCEPTIONS

Picture
Sensation refers to the process of sensing our environment through touch, taste, sight, sound, and smell. This information is sent to our brains in raw form where perception comes into play. Perception is the way we interpret these sensations and therefore make sense of everything around us.

This UNIT will describe various theories related to these two concepts and explain the important role they play in the field of psychology.  Through this UNIT, you will gain a better idea of how our senses work and how this information is organized and interpreted.

PDF:  PSYCHOLOGY OF PAIN
WEIGHT:  45 PTS

The perception of pain involves far more than mere sensation. The affective and evaluative components of pain are often as important as the production and transmission of the pain signal. These emotional aspects are most prominent in chronic pain patients, but knowledge of the psychology of pain can greatly improve the treatment of acute pain as well.
