  2. Stimulus modality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stimulus_modality

    For example, the temperature modality is registered after heat or cold stimulate a receptor. Some sensory modalities include: light, sound, temperature, taste, pressure, and smell. The type and location of the sensory receptor activated by the stimulus plays the primary role in coding the sensation. All sensory modalities work together to ...

  3. Representational systems (NLP) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_systems_(NLP)

    In particular, new code emphasizes individual calibration and sensory acuity, precluding such a rigidly specified model as the one described above. [23] Responding directly to sensory experience requires an immediacy which respects the importance of context. John Grinder has stated that a representational system diagnosis lasts about 30 seconds ...

  4. Perceptual learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perceptual_learning

    Other examples of perceptual learning in the natural world include the ability to distinguish between relative pitches in music, [24] identify tumors in x-rays, [25] sort day-old chicks by gender, [26] taste the subtle differences between beers or wines, [27] identify faces as belonging to different races, [28] detect the features that ...

  5. Sense - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sense

    Sensory organs are organs that sense and transduce stimuli. Humans have various sensory organs (i.e. eyes, ears, skin, nose, and mouth) that correspond to a respective visual system (sense of vision), auditory system (sense of hearing), somatosensory system (sense of touch), olfactory system (sense of smell), and gustatory system (sense of taste).

  6. Sensory cue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_cue

    In perceptual psychology, a sensory cue is a statistic or signal that can be extracted from the sensory input by a perceiver, that indicates the state of some property of the world that the perceiver is interested in perceiving. A cue is some organization of the data present in the signal which allows for meaningful extrapolation.

  7. Sensory nervous system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_nervous_system

    Most sensory systems have a quiescent state, that is, the state that a sensory system converges to when there is no input. [citation needed] This is well-defined for a linear time-invariant system, whose input space is a vector space, and thus by definition has a point of zero. It is also well-defined for any passive sensory system, that is, a ...

  8. Sensory processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_processing

    Other sensory modalities exist, for example the vestibular sense (balance and the sense of movement) and proprioception (the sense of knowing one's position in space) Along with Time (The sense of knowing where one is in time or activities). It is important that the information of these different sensory modalities must be relatable.

  9. Tactile discrimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tactile_discrimination

    There is a difference between different chronic pain conditions and how they affect tactile acuity deficits. One of the conditions with the most profound deficits in tactile acuity is arthritis. This condition affects the tactile acuity both at the site of the pain and at remote locations away from the pain. [5]
