  2. Visual sociology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_sociology

    Visual sociologists can categorize and count them; ask people about them; or study their use and the social settings in which they are produced and consumed. So the second meaning of visual sociology is a discipline to study the visual products of society—their production, consumption and meaning.

  3. Kinesthetic learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinesthetic_learning

    These elements are broken down into five stimuli: environmental, emotional, sociological, physiological and psychological variables. Under this model, physiological stimuli consist of four elements, one of which is perceptual. Perceptual depicts the auditory, visual, tactual and kinesthetic styles whereby learners learn more effectively.

  4. Stimulus modality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stimulus_modality

    Tactile stimulation is used in clinical psychology through the method of prompting. Prompting is the use of a set of instructions designed to guide a participant through learning a behavior. A physical prompt involves stimulation in the form of physically guided behavior in the appropriate situation and environment.

  5. Sensory map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_map

    An example is the somatosensory map which is a projection of the skin's surface in the brain that arranges the processing of tactile sensation. This type of somatotopic map is the most common, possibly because it allows for physically neighboring areas of the brain to react to physically similar stimuli in the periphery or because it allows for ...

  6. Sensory processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_processing

    Visual stimuli are recorded directly onto the retina, and there are few, if any, external distortions that provide incorrect information to the brain about the true location of an object. [18] Other spatial information is not as reliable as visual spatial information. For example, consider auditory spatial input.

  7. Multisensory integration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multisensory_integration

    RT to simultaneous visual and tactile stimuli was also faster than RT to simultaneous dual visual or tactile stimuli. The advantage for RT to combined visual-tactile stimuli over RT to the other types of stimulation could be accounted for by intersensory neural facilitation rather than by probability summation. These effects can be ascribed to ...

  8. Social cue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_cue

    Stimuli are processed through experience sharing and mentalizing and the likelihood of the other person's internal state is inferred by the Bayesian logic. Experience sharing is a person's tendency to take on another person's facial expressions, posture and internal state and is often related to the area of empathy .

  9. Sensory cue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_cue

    An example of visual capture is the ventriloquism effect, that occurs when an individual's visual system locates the source of an auditory stimulus at a different position than where the auditory system locates it. When this occurs, the visual cues will override the auditory ones.
