They enable us to have checks and balances in the way sensory data is interpreted giving consideration to the fact that there is no absolute sensory accuracy or inaccuracy when evaluating sensory information. For example, any biological impairment to the senses or brain can cause altered sensual perception. For instance, sickness such as althzeimer, drugs or alcohol have a negative influence on sensory interpretation and evaluation of sensory data. consequently providing deceptive information to the brain which results in false interpretation (Kirby/Goodpaster, 2007).
Another role of nature and nurture that impact alteration in human sensory perception and thinking may be in customs and personal habits and biases which can influence the interpretation and evaluation of sensory data. For instance, many people involved in observation of an object or an event will provide different perspective and views from their respective sensory perception. This is not necessarily deceptive or false, it simply supports the fact that human perception is a complex process and even at the weakness of perceived inaccuracy, there is creativity of the mind to produce unique data or
