Unformatted sample text from the term paper:
man what it is like to see? It is difficult to describe the five senses, but not impossible. Also, the senses are very important for humans and one is significantly
crippled even with the loss of a single sense. When one is deprived of a sense, usually the others become significantly stronger. For example, a blind individual will usually have
an acute sense of hearing. Of the five senses, the tongue and mouth are most sensitive (Cantwell, 1999). While that point is arguable, one does have to admit that
people do spend a lot of time cooking, eating, talking about restaurants and so forth. Similarly, in romantic endeavors the mouth is one of the most erotic zones. In
comparing the five senses to one another, a chemist by the name of Nate Lewis said: "...we know how people touch; we know how people see; we know how
they hear. We dont really know anything about how they taste or smell" (qtd. in Taubes, 1996, p. 40). It is known that while senses operate similarly in all human
beings, there are vast individual differences. Artists are visually oriented while others respond better to auditory stimulation. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) focuses on a processes to describe an
individuals personality (Cross & Tilson, 1997). One trait measured is "sensing vs. intuitive" (1997). The scale measures an individuals preference for learning in terms of utilization of the five senses
(1997). Thus, individual preferences now may be measured. References Cantwell, B. L. (1999). Plot with Your Five Senses. Writer, 112 (6), 16-18 Cross, D. S. &
