Punctuation is not a factor that influences the selection stage of the perception process. The selection stage involves choosing which sensory information to focus on, and is influenced by factors such as salience, unexpectedness, importance, and stimulation level of the communication, but not by punctuation, which relates more to the structure and clarity of written communication.
