Some Implications of the Perceptgenetic Studies We should be most
grateful to Professor Gudmund Smith for this compilation of studies
on perceptgenesis (PG). Smith and his colleagues at Lund University
are part of a small insurgency in psychology that has worked gamely
and in relative obscurity to document the presence of subjective
phases in the process leading to a perceptual object and the
infrastructure of this process in the person ality. Smith describes
ingenious methods to probe this hidden undersurface, and of a
perceptual object is, in the ordinary demonstrate that the
experiential content an object sense, pre-perceptual. That is, the
feeling, meaning and recognition of are not attached to things out
there in the world after they are perceived, but are phases
ingredient in the process through which the perception occurs. To
most psychologists, this statement would appear so radical as to be
hardly worth refuting. A subjective approach to perception
undermines the realism, consensual validation, and objectivity of a
descriptive science of the mind. It is much simpler to interpret
the 'psychic contribution' to object perception as an addition to
physical nature. However, the idea that objects are assemblies of
sensory bits linked to feeling and meaning, associated to memories
for recognition and interpretation and then projected back into the
world where we see them, though at first blush appealing to common
sense, is so implausible that one is mystified by its universal
acceptance."
