Book Ad: Our sensory profile
Seeker, avoider, bystander and sensor are terms that have emerged from the study of sensory experiences: how people relate to sounds, such as rock music, and tastes, such as the sourness of lemonade, and touch, the feel, for example, of silk between the fingers.
How people react to sensory experience often dictates how they behave, what they like and dislike and, most important, who they'll get along well with.
All this comes out in a new book, “Living Sensationally,” by Winnie Dunn, a professor and chair of the department of occupational therapy education at the University of Kansas Medical Center.
~Another category for Homeland Security profilers to add to their list to aid them in spotting potential terrorists or another way for advertisers to group people together in order to better direct their products' message to the most susceptable consumers?
[And what sometimes happens when researchers 'discover' for example categories like seeker, avoider, bystander and sensor, visual and certainly numerical representations are created. Images if you prefer.]
