<span>Perception is the way our brain interprets the information we acquire through our senses; sight, smell or touch for example. Being a subjective interpretation this is influenced by several higher cortical functions, such as expectations or motivation that we have, that is, we hope to perceive or because we expect a certain perception. <span>For example, it is not the same to drink a beverage whose flavor we already knew, to drink a new flavor, we tend to perceive better a new flavor and to compare it with schemes that we had previously.

Why dint the smaller states like the Virginia plan proposed by Edmund Randolph and James Madison
Leviafan [203]
The smaller states saw the Virginia plan as slanted more in the favor of the larger states, as it would have the House and Senate elected by proportions, which would heavily favor largely populated states like Virginia. The New Jersey Plan was proposed to counter it, which would have a Senate that elected one Senator from each state. The Connecticut Compromise was reached, which created a Senate that elected 2 Senators per state, and the House, which was based on proportion. This way, everyone got part of what they wanted.
