Course Cross-listed with PSY 342
3 credit(s)
This course presents sensory systems and perceptual processes with respect to vision, audition, and other sense modalities. You will learn how we see, hear, feel pain and temperature, and receive information from the environment; how our perceptions are affected by expectancy, knowledge, and higher-level organizational factors. Perception is the construction of a representation of the external world for purposes of thinking about it and acting in it. This course fosters an appreciation for the beauty of perceptual systems and provides new insights into everyday experiences.
Prerequisite(s): NEU 101.
