Q's (Kim Woods) only

Your post should be at least 200-250 words in length 

In this unit, you are examining how you are affected by your sensations, perceptions, and different states of consciousness. Though appearing as separate processes, these three concepts are experienced in a fluid, continuous experience. By breaking them down a little and examining them further, you can gain more understanding of human thinking and behavior.

· Identify which of your senses is the most important to you and why.

· If you had to give one up, which one would you let go of and why?

· Describe some things that influence the way you perceive the world around you.

· When it comes to your different states of consciousness, discuss the senses you feel pose a barrier to things you want to accomplish in your life. Describe how you can work to overcome them based on what you learned in this chapter.

1. Please make sure to address ALL parts of the questions.  There are multiple parts each week.  Answering ALL parts will ensure you a better grade.

2. Use separate paragraphs for each part of the answer.  Simply hit “enter” 2 times to start a new paragraph.  This will help organize your reply.  So, if there are 3 parts to the question, you should have 3 paragraphs in your reply.    

The APA ethics code urges researchers to (1) obtain human participants’  informed consent  before the experiment, (2) protect them from harm and discomfort, (3) keep information about individual participants confidential, and (4) fully  debrief  people (explain the research afterward). Moreover, university ethics committees screen research proposals and safeguard participants’ well-being.

You MUST include a credit (an in-text citation and end of post full reference) for the course materials (and any other source you use) in your posts.  Please strive to use proper APA formatting for your sources in order to earn full credit for that aspect of the grading rubric.  I will be modeling APA formatting in my replies to you... please start using APA formatting for the sources you used...   **You will find the APA formatted text cite and ref in the announcements.
