Understanding Perceptual Interpretation

Very Easy Unit 3: Sensation & Perception Perceptual Interpretation

Perceptual interpretation refers to how we make sense of sensory information based on our experiences, expectations, and context. A common example of perceptual interpretation can be seen in how different people perceive ambiguous images. For instance, when viewing an image that can be interpreted as either a rabbit or a duck, an individual's interpretation may depend on their past experiences or context. In this scenario, if a group of people is shown a picture that can be perceived in multiple ways, which characteristic primarily influences their interpretation of the image?
