________ is the process by which individuals organize and interpret their sensory
impressions in order to give meaning to their environment.
A) Sensation
B) Impression
C) Apprehension
D) Attribution
E) Perception
Perception is defined as a process by which individuals organize and interpret their
sensory impressions in order to give meaning to their environment. People's behavior is

perceives can be substantially different from objective reality.
Which of the following statements is true regarding perception?

B) Our perception of a target is not affected by the context of the situation in which the
perception is made.
C) Our perception of reality can be different from the objective reality.
D) Our perception of reality is independent of our past experiences.
E) We form a perception of a target by looking at it in isolation.
Our perception of reality can be different from the objective reality. Our perception of
reality is affected by our personality, past experiences, and the context of the situation
in which the perception is made. We do not look at targets in isolation.
When two people witness something at the same time and in the same situation yet
interpret it differently, factors that operate to shape their perceptions reside in the
________.
A) perceivers
B) target
C) timing
D) context
E) situation
Since the time and situation are the same, the factors that operate to shape perception
must be in the perceivers themselves. Personal characteristics that can affect
perception include perceiver attitudes, personality, motives, interests, past experiences,
and expectations.

A) his financial background
B) his expectations
C) his interest
D) his motive

A) Our perception of reality depends on our past experiences.
B) Our perception of reality depends on our personality.
C) We don't look at targets in isolation.
D) The time at which we see an object can influence our perception of the object.
E) Our motives and expectations affect our perception of a target.
Characteristics of the target we observe can affect what we perceive. Loud people are
more likely to be noticed in a group than quiet ones. So, too, are extremely attractive or
unattractive individuals. Because we don't look at targets in isolation, the relationship of
a target to its background influences our perception of the target.
