Detailed explanation-1: -There are the four patterns of sensory processing: low registration, sensation seeking, sensory sensitive and sensation avoiding.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sensory stimuli is picked up by sensory receptors all over the body. The receptors pass the information to the brain. The brain is like a computer, filled with thousands of wires connected to different areas of the brain which help us process, interpret and then choose the appropriate response to the sensory stimuli.
Detailed explanation-3: -These are Proprioception, a sense of body awareness; Vestibular, which involves movement, balance and coordination; and Interoception which helps us understand and feel what’s happening inside our body.
Detailed explanation-4: -There are the ones we know – sight (visual), taste (gustatory), touch (tactile), hearing (auditory), and smell (olfactory). The three we’re not so familiar with are vestibular (balance), proprioceptive (movement) and interoceptive (internal). Let’s take a closer look at all eight sensory systems…
