Answer to Question #238009 in Psychology for Holi

Question

The most commonly known and labeled senses are sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell. Considering this, please address the following

How does a “definition” (for example, how we define the 5 senses) help or hinder us in knowing the parameters of a concept, think about a concept’s potential for expansion, or keep a concept within known boundaries?

Do you think that the definition of sensation needs to be expanded? Why? 

 

Answer 1

Under the five primary senses, senses and perception are generalized and hampered. Sensory systems and processes for perceiving interactions, on the other hand, are more complicated and extensive. Constraints in an individual's life include prior learning, cultural hurdles, social expectations, and family relationships.
