Sensory PerceptionStudent Name:Institution:Sensory PerceptionAccuracy or Inaccuracy of Sensory InformationSensory information in my opinion can provide an accurate view of the world. It is because people's lives revolve around the senses and thinking. There are five senses in living beings, including; sight, touch, taste, smell and hearing. People's thoughts are primarily an interaction with the sensory system. The accuracy of sensory information, therefore, depends on a person's thinking, the fewer distractions in thoughts, the sensory information is accurate. Reasons for believing in the accuracy of sensory information are listed (Bueti, Bahrami & Walsh, 2008).1. Touch. This sense, composed mainly of the skin, allows you to detect dangerous materials. Hot and cold materials are touched and the touch sensor detects this and sends the information to the brain. The brain triggers a response to an action by moving the hand away from the material.2. Taste. The sensory organs of the tongue are vital to the accuracy of sensory information. It makes it possible to decide which foods can be eaten or a person's preferences are based on the sensory organs of the tongue.3. Sight: The organ responsible for sight, the eye, allows you to see a variety of things ranging from pleasant to dangerous. The sense of sight helps trigger a response based on the information detected and sent to the brain. The answer could be moving away or moving closer. The above are reasons to believe in the accuracy of sensory information. They are an important key to discovering the wonders of the world and allow you to explore new things. The alteration of the senses causes the inaccuracy of sensory information... in the center of the card... here is a fire outbreak in the neighborhood, an adult person can smell the smoke and make sense of it all while a child he won't be able to understand if there is a fire because he has no memory of the smell of smoke. So it is not possible to give it meaning and take action. ReferencesBoets, B., Wouters, J., Wieringen, A. V., Smedt, B. D., & Ghesquière, P. (2008).
