The husband claims he was just returning her eye contact and smile. Which process in the organizational stage of perception have the husband and wife engaged in differently?

Answer 1

Answer:

Interpretation

Explanation:

A husband and wife are having dinner at a restaurant when the wife accuses her husband of paying too much attention to their server. The husband claims he was just returning her eye contact and smile. Therefore, the process in the organizational stage of perception that the husband and wife engaged in differently is called interpretation. The wife might not be confident with herself or her relationship, meaning she thinks little things are significant. However, the husband might be trying to hide his ''crush'' on the server or he might be actually just returning her eye contact. Overall, this means the husband and wife have different interpretations of the situation.

Answer 2

Answer:

Interpretation

Explanation:

The stage called Interpretation occurs when after individuals perceive the events that are happening in a situation, each individual interprets these events in their own way according to their beliefs, memories, bias, ideas, among others. The stage of the interpretation can be applied to the case of the couple exposed in the question, where the wife accused her husband of paying close attention to their server. The husband interpreted the attention he gave the server as a response to the server's sympathy, but the wife interpreted it as a boldness or a betrayal.
