  2. Sensory processing sensitivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_processing_sensitivity

    By way of definition, Aron and Aron (1997) wrote that sensory processing here refers not to the sense organs themselves, but to what occurs as sensory information is transmitted to or processed in the brain. [4] They assert that the trait is not a disorder but an innate survival strategy that has both advantages and disadvantages. [11] [12]

  3. Tactile discrimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tactile_discrimination

    The second type of sensor is a high spatial resolution sensor which can be compared to a human fingertip and is essential for the tactile acuity in robotic hands. The third and final tactile sensor type is a low spatial resolution sensor which has similar tactile acuity as the skin on one's back or arm. [6]

  4. 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 ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. Psychosensory therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychosensory_Therapy

    Psychosensory therapy is a form of therapeutic treatment that uses sensory stimuli (i.e., touch, sight, sound, taste, smell) to affect psychological and emotional health. [1] In addition, psychosensory therapy is a group of therapeutic techniques that involves applying sensory inputs to treat various behaviors, mood, thoughts, symptoms, and ...

  7. 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 ...

  8. 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 ...

  9. Sensory memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_memory

    Sensory memory (SM) allows individuals to retain impressions of sensory information after the original stimulus has ceased. [2] A common demonstration of SM is a child's ability to write letters and make circles by twirling a sparkler at night.
