10/14 ARW

In this class, I thought perception is close to assumption.

The video I saw in the class is a interesting example. In that video those who were deceived rather than subjects responded in different ways. All of them were astonished and screamed at the event. After they turned out it'd been false, some felt relieved or angry, or cried, laughed. At the scene, it was impossible  they found that was not true unless they assumed the event to be reactions to unbelievable things and wanted to think it untrue. 

But, of course, that event wasn't true. 

Why did they consider true?

Because they were on the correct assumption that what they saw was true. It's said 80% of the information people perceive comes from the sense of sight. 

So it's natural people had make assumptions. 

I think they can't help assuming.
