Sarit is at a bar full of music, chatter, and laughter. He gets involved in an interesting conversation with a woman named Mona, and he tunes out all the background noise. Sarit’s friend, Karen, taps him on the shoulder and asks what song just played on the jukebox. Sarit says he doesn’t know, even though he is sitting right next to the jukebox and is familiar with popular music. This illustrates the role that ________ plays in what is sensed versus what is perceived.

Respuesta :

Answer: Attention

Explanation:

Attention in terms of sensation vs perception is awareness or consciousness that is present when something is sensed and recognized through seeing, listening, touching etc .These sensations can be interpreted when senses are perceived clearly.

According to the question, Sarit is not able to interpret the song even though he was next to jukebox because he was not paying attention while receiving the sensation of song and thus ,perception was not created.
