The perception process involves four steps in order: organization, attention, interpretation, and retention. First, we organize incoming information according to our existing knowledge and experiences. Then, we selectively attend to certain pieces of information. Next, we interpret the information to make sense of it based on our beliefs and expectations. Finally, we retain the information in memory for future use. The correct order of these steps is C) organization, attention, interpretation, retention.
