  2. Perceptual learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perceptual_learning

    Perceptual learning is a more in-depth relationship between experience and perception. Different perceptions of the same sensory input may arise in individuals with different experiences or training. This leads to important issues about the ontology of sensory experience, the relationship between cognition and perception. An example of this is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moravec's_paradox

    Some examples of skills that have been evolving for millions of years: recognizing a face, moving around in space, judging people's motivations, catching a ball, recognizing a voice, setting appropriate goals, paying attention to things that are interesting; anything to do with perception, attention, visualization, motor skills, social skills ...

  4. Sensory processing disorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_processing_disorder

    Sensory cravings, [13] including, for example, fidgeting, impulsiveness, and/or seeking or making loud, disturbing noises; and sensorimotor-based problems, including slow and uncoordinated movements or poor handwriting. Sensory discrimination problems, which might manifest themselves in behaviors such as things constantly dropped. [citation needed]

  5. Sensory processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_processing

    Sensory based motor disorder. Patients have incorrect processing of motor information that leads to poor motor skills. Sensory processing disorder or sensory discrimination disorder, which is characterized by postural control problems, lack of attentiveness, and disorganization. There are several therapies used to treat SPD.

  6. Stimulus modality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stimulus_modality

    Multimodal perception is the ability of the mammalian nervous system to combine all of the different inputs of the sensory nervous system to result in an enhanced detection or identification of a particular stimulus. Combinations of all sensory modalities are done in cases where a single sensory modality results in an ambiguous and incomplete ...

  7. Visual selective attention in dementia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_selective_attention...

    This is due to age-related deficits in selective attention and working memory, particularly with regard to a reduced ability to inhibit distracting sensory information. [5] In a study by Kotary and Hoyer, [2] adult age differences were examined in terms of the effects of distractor interference on visual search. Distractors were either related ...

  8. Visuospatial function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visuospatial_function

    Visuospatial skills are needed for movement, depth and distance perception, and spatial navigation. [1] Impaired visuospatial skills can result in, for example, poor driving ability because distances are not judged correctly or difficulty navigating in space such as bumping into things. [1]

  9. Eye–hand coordination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye–hand_coordination

    Optic ataxia has been often considered to be a high-level impairment of hand–eye coordination resulting from a cascade of failures in the sensory to motor transformations in the posterior parietal cortex. Visual perception, naming, and reading are still possible, but visual information cannot direct hand motor movements. [13]
