30
Q

A

Minimum amount of stimulation that can be dected on a sensory channel

31
Q

Differential threshold

A

Ability of a sensory system to dectect changes in a stimulus or differences between two stimuli

32
Q

Perceptual activity

A

People only pay attention to a small portion of the stimuli which they are exposed to

33
Q

Adaption

A

Degree to which consumers continue to notice stimulus over time

34
Q

Adaption factors

A
  • intensity
  • duration
  • discrimination
  • exposure
  • relevance
35
Q

Adaption factors - Intensity

A

Consumers become habituated to less-intense stimuli - they have less of a sensory impact

36
Q

Adaption factors - Duration

A

Stimuli that require realively long exposure to be processed then to be habituated because they require a longer attention span

37
Q

Adaption factors - Discrimination

A

Simple stimuli tend to be habituated because they do not require attention to detail

38
Q

Adaption factors - Exposure

A

People tend to habituate to frequently encountered stimuli as the rate of exposure increases

39
Q

Adaption factors - Relevance

A

People tend to habitutate stimuli that are irrelevant or unimportant because they feel fail to attract attention

40
Q
