question 20
active perception is the view that people...
○ what you see is what you get
○ add to or subtract from events because of their own perception
○ neglect some stimuli
● assign meaning to stimuli
Active perception involves the cognitive process where individuals interpret and give meaning to sensory stimuli. The option "assign meaning to stimuli" aligns with this concept. "What you see is what you get" is a passive view, "add to or subtract from events" is more about distortion in perception (like in misperception), and "neglect some stimuli" relates to selective attention, not active perception's core of meaning - assignment.
