Perceptual systems: Five+, one, or many?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 30 October 2001
Abstract
The target article's value lies not in its defence of specification, or the “global array” concept, but in its challenge to the paradigm of 5+ senses, and its examples of multiple receptor types cooperatively participating in specific pick-up tasks. Rather than analysing our perceptual endowment into 5+ senses, it is more revealing to type perceptual systems according to task.
