Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Perception refers to the passive and automatic process of organizing and interpreting sensory information, whereas apperception is an active and voluntary process of assigning meaning to this information. Therefore, the opposite of perception (passive) is apperception (active), making option B the correct answer. Option A is incorrect because it is comparing two types of apperception (conscious and unconscious). Option C is incorrect because attention is a necessary component of both perception and apperception, and creative synthesis does not refer to a specific process. Option D is incorrect because creative synthesis is a component of apperception, not the opposite of attention.
