Perception is central to understanding how people react. Everyone has certain perceptual tendencies that define the world from our own personal point of view. Values, emotional states, needs and personality all come into play. Characteristic of the object and situation also affect what people select, how people organize what people perceive, and how people make interpretation. Most critical are the errors in judgments people make the world around us. A particularly interesting tendency is how people make causal inferences about what people perceived. People tend to attribute other people’s behavior to their personality rather than to situational forces.
