Sarit is at a bar full of music, chatter, and laughter. He gets involved in an interesting conversation with a woman named Mona,
and he tunes out all the background noise. Sarit's friend, Karen, taps him on the shoulder and asks what song just played on the jukebox. Sarit says he doesn't know, even though he is sitting right next to the jukebox and is familiar with popular music. This illustrates the role that ________ plays in what is sensed versus what is perceived.
Attention is a cognitive process by which a person is able to focus on a discrete aspect of information while ignoring information that is not needed.
Here, Sarit is paying attention to what Mona is saying. By doing this only what Mona is saying is considered as valuable information to Sarit. Other all perceived information is ignored.
When Karen asks Sarit about what song was playing this information is not what he was focusing on hence it is ignored.
Democracy is the system of government where the people holds the power as the eligible members of the population elects representatives
This is the most common system of government as a lot of government adopts this approach as the elected government officials are chosen and selected by the people and they are bound to the laws/constitution of the land.
