Mental Disorder
1. The mental hospital staff focused on the characteristics of a patient with schizophrenia disorder. The staff had already established notation that the person was suffering from schizophrenia. For this reason, the staff expected the observable examination of the person to read positive on existence of disorder. The staff assumed that all the patient admitted in the mental hospital suffered from mental disorder and therefore did not think that he might be okay. The staff therefore ignored behavior practices for normal individual thus failing to discover that the person was normal.
To some extent, healthcare providers have a mentality that everyone coming to the hospital is sick and therefore focus on ailing aspects rather than thinking the person might be healthy. The expectations or beliefs of individual influences his/her perception (Swoyer, 2002). This influences how hospital staffs view health condition of any individual admitted in the hospital. The patient quickly realized that the person was schizophrenia-free as they had no mindset over what they expect the person to behave. They could therefore easily realize that difference in behavior practices of the person as compared to other patients admitted for schizophrenia.
1. A vase of a context is made visible over the face to the people by ensuring that the context is made more clear or with less decorations at the face. If people can see what is in the vase, they will be highly attracted by the vase rather than the face. Paintings and drawing can be made in the vase rather than the face thus popping out the vase to create more attention. On the other hand, adding paintings and drawings in the location of the face would create more attention on the face rather than the vase. Testing this hypothesis would involve conducting a simple experiment which would involve displaying the original unaltered picture and identify their illusion on both the face and the vase. I would later display the altered picture to the same group of people to let them show their expression on both the vase and the face of the picture. The information collected would be useful in drawing the conclusion on how the context influences our perception.
