In sensory deprivation studies, researchers were interested in what would happen if our senses adapted to most incoming stimuli. Distinguish between the findings produced by early studies and more recent research, and how they inform scientists about sensation and perception.
Discuss the limitations of each of the current leading theories of dreaming. Why do you suppose this exceedingly common human experience has remained so resistant to explanation?
In Chapter 5, we learned that some taste preferences (such as a liking for sweets) are universal—a part of our evolutionary heritage. Others are a matter of culture.
