information to the brain because the brain must interpret the information and this is a cognitive or intellectual process. * Humans do not always see things as they are or
as they relate to the environment. * Visual perception is crucial because our eyes provide about 75 percent of the cues we use to get along in life (Holston,
2006). * Visual perception may be conscious or non-conscious. Conscious perception requires a cognitive act that results in perceptual hypotheses that the cognitive part of the brain tries to match
against information from memories and then, tries to structure that information (Marcel, 1983). In other words, the brain tries to make sense of the perception experience so that it can
be used. * Non-conscious perceptual processes can produce many different hypotheses in different domains because it is not structured. Instead, it tries to find any kind of memory that is
related to it (Marcel, 1983). * Visual perception can be inaccurate in terms of the real environment. A good example is found in pilot training. Holston (2006) reported he was
in the simulator approaching a landing with only a few landing lights. However, there was a small lit town on one side of the strip. He had already determined where
the runway was so he was in good shape to land. All of a sudden, the simulator stopped because he had crashed. He was a victim of spatial disorientation. *
Our eyes may provide 75 percent of the information we need to maintain our orientation but visual cues can conflict with the brains own perception of the image (Holston, 2006).
* Spatial disorientation can happen to anyone. Consider you are sitting at a stop light when the car next to you begins to very slowly roll forward. It is
