    I perceive the key points in this document to be: 1. Perception is the process by which we become aware of our surroundings through our senses and involves selection, organization, and interpretation of stimuli. 2. Many factors influence our perceptions, including our physiological and psychological states, culture, social roles and past experiences. 3. We can get into trouble with perception through stereotyping, where we overgeneralize groups of people and assume our perceptions are always correct without considering individuals.
