Topic > Human Social Perception - 2453

Basic Investigation Human social perception is a topic that has received a significant level of attention and whose presence continues to interest scientists and psychologists. How we perceive others depends on a significant number of factors; which are classified into internal and external. This was established through a study by Dewaele and Furnham (2010) who sought to study personality and language production among students learning a second language. The article's strength was that it established the effect of voice on perception. This means that the results of the study can be used by students to critically examine how voice- or speech-based perception occurs and are therefore relevant to this article. A weakness is identified in that the system used did not use a control experiment to determine whether perceptions were different between those who were learning the language compared to those who already knew it. In an article written by Klaus and Ursula Scherer (1981) , it was evident that all human beings tend to categorize others on the basis of behavior, including sociable versus reserved, stable versus neurotic, cautious versus reckless, and so on. They also identify that this is a natural phenomenon for any layman, even though they may not use the word personality as it is used in psychology. Psychologists, on the other hand, have identified the behavioral constructs that underlie perception and have shown that people are likely to categorize people based on their linguistic behavior. This is justified by the fact that personality manifests itself mainly with behavior subject to few external restrictions. In the case of verbal aspects, for example, it is believed that some aspects have limitations... middle of the paper... computer-mediated communication which is very useful for applications in everyday life, for example in healthcare. The strengths of this article include the ability to effectively guide the reader through the process of using SSP to connect human behavior to computer-based applications; which is a development in the field of artificial intelligence. It provides knowledge on how computer-mediated information can be useful in everyday applications such as in the healthcare sector. The article also provides recommendations on future uses of SSP such as the use of multimedia indexing and space and environment in the expression of social relational messages. A weakness of this article is that it does not provide information on the number of sample entries to use to process the program. The procedure indicated appears to be too general and this may cause ambiguity.
