What is the difference between indirect and direct perception?

In perception, when I see a person, what do I see? A good initial answer is the obvious one: I just see another person. Seeing is an activity that requires an object. If what I see is the object of my seeing, then since what I see is this other person, it follows that the object of my seeing is another person. Call this view direct perception. The object of my seeing is another person. However, a different view is suggested by the following. As I walk around this person, what I see changes. My activity of seeing is constant and the object of my seeing, the other person, does not change. However, clearly what I see does change! The only change that occurs is my position. But how can a change in my position account for a change in the object of what I see, if that object is another person and that person does not change? The implication is that direct perception leaves out a key element: my perceptual state. Call this view indirect perception. If what I see changes as I walk round this person, it is the perceptual state (in this case a visual image) I have of this person that changes. If what I see is the object of my seeing, then this object changes. For indirect perception, the object of my seeing is not the other person, but rather my perceptual state

Is a group a thing that can be seen?

No. A group is an idea and not an object. Even if it was an object, even objects can not be seen in their truest sense. You always only see a representation of an object. Take a keyboard. You are not seeing a keyboard. You are seeing a representation of the form of keyboardness.


When a bull sees a red coloured object why it gets angry?

It doesn't, this is a myth. The bull gets "angry" at the movement of the object, not the colour. Cattle, including bulls, cannot see the colour red, therefore the fact that a bull can see a red object as no merit to the subject at hand.

How does reflection help in seeing object?

Reflection helps in seeing an object because if you want to be discrete about what you are doing then you can look into a mirror or something and see something, as long as it is in the correct position. But, if you meant otherwise like when in a submarine or boat and you want to see above the ship, then the eye piece that they look through uses mirrors to reflect what is above, clever really. I hope this has helped you and if it hasn't please let me know and i will improve.
