Question

Processing that commences with sensory receptors registering environmental information and sending it to the brain for analysis and interpretation is known as ______ processing.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is bottom-up processing.

Explanation:

This process refers to analysing and interpreting information based on its raw presentation. An example is looking at a picture, which the brain later interprets as a puppy. On the other hand, top-down processing involves context based cues; the brain interprets the information based on expectations.
