PERCEPTION IS ALL THAT MATTERS IN EVERYTHING WE DO IN OUR LIFE AND EVERYTHING THAT OTHERS DO.EVERY SINGLE ACTIVITY MAY HAVE SEVERAL COMPLEX AND SIMPLE PERCEPTIONS.IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW A PERSON IS WHAT MATTERS IS HIS ATTITUDE AND HOW HE TAKES IN THINGS AND DEVELOPS OR DETERMINES THE PROS AND CONS AND HIS FEELINGS FOR IT.WHICH IN SHORT CAN BE TERMED AS PERCEPTION.ITS THE PERCEPTION WHICH MAKES A SITUATION OR AN EVENT COMPLEX AND SIMPLE IN LIFE.DIFFERENT PEOPLE HAVE UNLIKE PERCEPTIONS.THIS IS THE ONLY REASON BEHIND VARIOUS SOLUTIONS OF A PROBLEM.
THE DETERMINANTS OF PERCEPTION ARE AN INDIVIDUALS CORE FACTORS :
* VALUE SYSTEM
* ETHICS OF LIFE
* SITUATIONAL IMPORTANCE
FIRSTLY,VALUE SYSTEM OF AN INDIVIDUAL IS THE PRIMARY DETERMINANT OF PERCEPTION.NO MATTER HOW WORSE OR HOW GOOD A SITUATION MAY BE,THE VALUE SYSTEM CONTROLS AN INDIVIDUALS LIFE MORE THAN HE HIMSELF.VALUE SYSTEM IS A FORCE WHICH UNCONSCIOUSLY ACTS BEHIND ALL DECISIONS AN INDIVIDUAL TAKES IN HIS LIFE.HENCE,WHENEVER A SITUATION CROPS UP,THE FIRST THING WHICH UNCONSCIOUSLY SETS THE BRAIN TO WORK IS THE VALUE SYSTEM.THE BRAIN ALWAYS COMES TO PRACTICAL SOLUTIONS,BUT,SINCE ALL DECISIONS IN LIFE CANT BE TAKEN PRACTICALLY,THE VALUE SYSTEM PINCHES IT TO START THINKING IN A WAY WHICH BALANCES ALL SOCIAL,EMOTIONAL,AS WELL AS THE PRACTICAL ASPECT.HENCE,WHEN AN INDIVIDUAL DEVELOPS PERCEPTIONS OF A SITUATION,THE VALUE SYSTEM DRIVES THE BRAIN TO COME TO A CONCLUSION.
SECONDLY,THE ETHICS OF LIFE ALSO PLAY A PARALLEL ROLE IN THE PERCEPTIVE PROCESS.IT MAY BE EXPLAINED THAT EVERY INDIVIDUAL HAS A SET OF LIFE-ETHICS.HENCE THE RESPONSIVENESS TO ANY SITUATION IS ALWAYS GUARDED BY LIFE ETHICS.SO,WHEN AN EVENT CROPS UP,THE DRIVE OF PERCEPTION IS GEARED UP BY LIFE ETHICS.THE ETHICAL LIFE OF A PERSON MATTERS IN MAKING HIS LIFE COMPLEX OR SIMPLE,AN EXTRA ETHICAL OR RIGID LIFE FAILS TO MOULD ACCORDING TO CHANGES AND TOUGH SITUATIONS,SINCE PERCEPTIONS BECOME VERY COMPLEX EVEN TO A SIMPLE SITUATION.ON THE OTHER HAND A LOW ETHICAL LIFE LEADS TO DEPENDENT PERCEPTIONS AND MAKES LIFE FULL OF COMPLEXITIES.A MODERATE ETHICAL LIFE HELPS IN BALANCING PERCEPTIONS IN ALL RESPECTS AND LEADS TO CORRECT DECISION MAKING.
THIRDLY, PERCEPTIONS OF A SITUATION ARE DETERMINED BY THE DEGREE OF RESPONSIVENESS OF AN INDIVIDUAL TO IT.RATHER IT MAY BE SAID THAT THE NATURE OF PERCEPTIONS DEPEND A LOT ON HOW MUCH AN INDIVIDUAL IS GIVING WEIGHTAGE TO THE SITUATION.IF THE DEGREE OF WEIGHTAGE IS LOW,THE PERCEPTIONS ARE NOT DEEPER,MOREOVER,IF THE DEGREE OF WEIGHTAGE IS HIGH,THE PERCEPTIONS ARE DEEPER AND MORE VICIOUS IN NATURE.HENCE THE IMPORTANCE OF A SITUATION DURING A CERTAIN PERIOD OF TIME IS WHAT COUNTS IN ITS CORRECT OR INCORRECT PERCEPTION.WHAT MAKES A SITUATION POSITIVE AS WELL AS NEGATIVE IS A PERSONS PERCEPTION.
HENCE,WE CAN CONCLUDE THAT PERCEPTION IS A GULF BETWEEN THE SITUATION AND THE DECISION.THE IMPACT OF A SITUATION ON AN INDIVIDUALS LIFE IS MEASURED BY THE NATURE OF PERCEPTION AND THE DECISION MAKING IS TOTALLY INFLUENCED AND DRIVEN BY HIS PERCEPTION OF THE SITUATION.
