I’m stuck on a Psychology question and need an explanation.

For your Discussion #2 Response: Read Ch 10 and view the 20-minute TED talk by David Eagleman entitled, “Can We Create New Senses for Humans?” Then, answer the questions below in your own words whenever possible, citing outside resources.

“Can We Create New Senses for Humans?” (Links to an external site.)

1. Summarize David Eagleman’s TED talk. In what ways does it relate to Unit #2 covering vision, hearing & language, and the body senses?
2. In the video clip, what did Dr. Eagleman mean when he said the statement
   (-below-)? How does his statement relate to the concepts of sensation and perception?
   “...Our experience of reality is constrained by our biology, and that goes against the common sense notion that our eyes and our ears and our fingertips are just picking up the objective reality that’s out there. Instead, our brains are sampling just a little bit of the world.”
3. From the video clip, what are some senses that animals possess, but we, as humans, do not? Provide examples of a couple of species and the unique senses they possess.
4. In the video clip, what does David mean by “sensory substitution?” What research has been conducted on sensory substitution? What does David mean by “sensory addition?” What research has David been conducting on sensory addition? How successful have these studies been?
5. From Ch 10 and the video clip, list & discuss at least two (2) terms or concepts you found interesting, surprising and/or important. Describe what these concepts are (in some detail) and why you selected them.
6. From Ch 10 and the video clip, list & discuss at least two (2) terms or concepts that you have questions about &/or that you think others may find challenging. Provide some detail about the concepts and the specific questions you have about them. {Classmates are going to try to answer your questions in their discussion replies, so be as detailed and clear as possible.}
