Making Sense of Everyday Differences: No, We Can’t Just Get Along

PRLog (Press Release) - May 20, 2010 - What makes the feelings and logic we experience so real and concrete that it’s hard to imagine that anyone could experience the same event so differently? And why is it so natural for humans to disagree?  For behavioral science consultant and co-creator of the Perceptual Style Theory (PST) Lynda-Ross Vega the answer is clear.  “Everyone is born with an innate way of seeing the world, a Perceptual Style that is so ingrained that even when experiencing the same event, we each have a unique perceptual experience.”  Lynda-Ross is the co-author of a new 7-part series of articles on Perceptual Style Theory and it’s 7 basic principles.  Part 3, Behavioral Science and the 6 Universal Categories of Perceptual Style is available online at www.YourTalentAdvantage.com.

Perceptual Style Theory is a behavioral science theory created by Lynda-Ross Vega and her colleague Gary Jordan, Ph.D. that aims to make sense of the everyday differences people experience between themselves and others.  “We’ve spent 30 years researching and creating a tool that people can easily use to understand themselves and their natural gifts, while also gaining an appreciation for the value of the differences and gifts of other people,” says Lynda-Ross.

“The differences between Perceptual Styles are real,” she says.   “They truly reflect differences in how the world is perceived so acknowledging that the differences exist can lead to an understanding and appreciation of different points of view. Assessing and understanding our individual Perceptual Style as well as those of others is the key to success in our personal and professional lives.”

In Perceptual Style Theory, there are high-level commonalities in perception that can be grouped together into six Perceptual Styles, says Lynda-Ross. These Perceptual Styles each describe a different perceptual experience of the world and the many characteristic behaviors that are a result of that perception and are a wonderful tool for understanding ourselves and others.”

“Our research supports that Perceptual Style is innate and unchanging,” she says.  “It describes who a person is rather than surface level traits that change from circumstance to circumstance. The six Perceptual Styles do not exist on a continuum in which one gradually slides into the next, but reflect six distinctly different perceptually based psychological experiences of the world, each supporting an incredible range of natural capacities, skills, and abilities.”
