How does society affects one's perception?

Well, perception is all about interpreting the information that the mind receives from the outside world. So the question is how does society affect one's perception? In my opinion the answer to that would be, it all depends on what society a person is around or dealing with. Society may change ones sense out of what we hear, what we touch, and what we smell. In other words you can see things differently. The way we interpret our physical state can influence the emotions that we feel. So perception really involves all of our senses, even though it is vision that we know most about. Hope it helped :)


Does emotions change in middle childhood?

Like childhood, youth to adulthood, ones emotions change with age and knowledge. A child's emotions are mostly based on having a desire for , and not having that emotion filled. A child will cry for attention and keep on crying until they receive that attention. Youth emotions are a mixture of what was and what is now. In other words you still retain some of your childish emotions but they are mixed with emotions which have some thought given to them. As an adult ones emotions are a complete mixture of all three.

Eg of stereotypes?

a stereotype is a generalized perception of first impressions: behaviors presumed by a group of people judging with the eyes/criticizing ones outer appearance (or a population in general) to be associated with another specific group. example; a goth is perceived to wear a lot of black clothing, be pale in complexion, act depressed or unhappy most of the time. However, this is a generalized perception, as people who wear black are not all goths, or goths do not always wear black.
