It involves the following:\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Grouping<\/strong>: Assembling of stimuli on the grounds of similarity.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Proximity<\/strong>: This is the closeness of stimuli to one another that affects perception.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Closure<\/strong>: It is the ability to organize stimuli so that together they form a whole pattern.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Interpretation<\/strong>: It is the formation of an idea about the information that is sensed, selected and organized. It involves the following phenomena: primacy effect, selective perception, stereotyping, halo effect, projection and expectancy effect. They are the types of perceptual errors.\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Primacy\/ Recency Effect<\/strong>:\u00a0 The first impression is given the most important which is known as the primacy effect. Recency effect, on the other hand, is that human beings remember latest events more than the less recent ones.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stereotyping<\/strong>:\u00a0 It is the effect caused by forming a certain belief about a category of stimuli and generalizing that notion to encounters with each member of that category. In reality, there is a difference between the perceived notion of each category and the actual traits of the members. It may affect the <a href=\"\/interview.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">interview<\/a> process in an organization.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Halo effect<\/strong>: It is the process of generalizing from a comprehensive analysis to a single attribute or trait. A negative halo effect is known as the reverse halo effect. It affects the performance appraisal of employees in a company.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Projection<\/strong>: It is a psychological defence mechanism which makes a person compare his negative traits with other people and conclude that they are better off than others.\u00a0 Perceptual checking minimizes the negative effects of projection.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Selective Perception<\/strong>: This means a person sees, feels or hears what he wants to and skips other information which are inconsistent to his view.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Expectancy effect<\/strong>: It is the tendency of an individual to interpret any person or object based on how he expects the person or object to be in the first place. It is also called as Pygmalion effect.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/businessjargons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Perceptual-framework1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7841\" src=\"https:\/\/businessjargons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Perceptual-framework1.jpg\" alt=\"perceptual framework\" width=\"306\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/businessjargons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Perceptual-framework1.jpg 306w, https:\/\/businessjargons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Perceptual-framework1-184x300.jpg 184w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 306px) 100vw, 306px\" \/><\/a>Perception is an intellectual, psychological process which is subjective as individuals perceive similar incident differently.<\/p>\n<h3>Importance of Perception<\/h3>\n<p>Perception plays a pivotal role in an organization as it influences the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Interpersonal work relation.<\/li>\n<li>Selection of employees.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/performance-appraisal.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Performance appraisal<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Hence, by the process of perception we make sense of the world around us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Definition: Perception is a process by which people regard, analyze, retrieve and react to any kind of information from the environment.
